Wood & Pellet Insert / Stove Installation in Queens & Long Island
A wood or pellet insert turns an open fireplace into a more efficient heater, and freestanding stoves can heat a room or more. We install the unit with a properly sized liner and clearances. We don't do gas-line work.
What is wood & pellet insert / stove installation?
An open fireplace sends much of its heat up the chimney. A wood or pellet insert sits inside the existing fireplace and turns it into a more efficient heater; a freestanding stove can do the same elsewhere in the home.
We install wood and pellet units with a properly sized liner and the clearances the manufacturer specifies. We don't do gas-line work.
