What affects the price

It starts with the unit itself—whether you choose a basic insert or a high-end designer model with custom stone work. We also look at your existing venting setup; if we need to run new lines or modify your chimney, labor costs will increase. Gas line access and electrical requirements are other variables that shift the total investment. We can provide exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
