Installation and service

We install what we sell

The people who talk you through the choice are the people who run the chimney, set the unit and come back in year seven when it needs a gasket.

Hearth work goes wrong at the joints between trades. The stove is fine, the chimney is fine, and the two of them were specified by people who never spoke. We avoid that by doing all of it.

Our installation crew has 50 years of combined experience. They run Class A chimney for airtight stoves and direct vent for gas units, reline masonry chimneys for stoves and inserts, run gas lines, and set the appliance.

We also service these

We service units from Heat n Glo, Heatilator and Quadra-Fire, along with everything we sell. If you inherited a unit with the house, call us with the model number off the rating plate.

Clean in the spring

We clean chimneys after the burning season rather than before it. Creosote sitting in a flue all summer is doing no one any good, and a chimney cleaned in April is a chimney that is ready the first cold night in October instead of three weeks after it.

Book service

Tell us the make, the model if you have it, and what it is doing. We will tell you whether it needs a part, a cleaning or a visit.

We answer during showroom hours. Prefer to talk now? Call (847) 526-5888.

What we do

One shop does the whole job

Installation

We professionally install every product we sell, in homes and in businesses.

Class A chimney

Class A chimney systems for airtight wood stoves, and direct vent chimneys for gas units.

Chimney relining

Relining for wood stoves and inserts going into an existing masonry chimney.

Chimney cleaning

We clean chimneys after the burning season. We think spring is the right time, so the system is ready when you want it next.

Gas lines

We run gas lines for gas units and for gas logs in an existing fireplace.

Gas service and repair

Annual gas product maintenance, plus general service and repair on what we sell.

A deep bed of glowing coals.

We sell it, install it, and come back.

One crew runs the Class A chimney, the relining, the gas line and the appliance itself, with 50 years of combined experience. When it needs a gasket in year seven, you call the same shop.
