Project: Custom Fireplace Installation in Austin, TX
A completed custom fireplace installation project by Space Fireplace Services in Austin, TX.
Every project has a story behind it — what the homeowner was dealing with, how we approached it, and how it turned out. Here’s the short version of this one, with enough detail that you can decide whether we’re the right team if you’re facing something similar.
The Challenge
An Austin couple was building a new home with a great room as the centerpiece. They wanted a modern linear gas fireplace as the focal feature — but the wall location wasn’t on an exterior wall, and venting was a challenge.
Our Approach
- Coordinated with the builder during framing to plan the vent run
- Specified a direct-vent linear gas fireplace appropriate to the room volume
- Installed the unit with a custom non-combustible surround
- Ran the vent through an interior chase to the roof
- Programmed the wall-mounted thermostat and remote
The Result
The fireplace became exactly the architectural feature the couple imagined. It heats the great room efficiently, runs cleanly, and required no compromises in placement.
What the Customer Said
“The team showed up when they said they would, walked us through what they were going to do before they started, and left the place cleaner than they found it. The work speaks for itself — we couldn’t be happier.”
