Gas Fireplace Installation

Our first step will be to go over with you the many exciting gas fireplace models available today from the world’s finest manufacturers. Once you've settled on the unit that delivers the heat you need and the looks you love, we’ll get to work.

We install gas fireplaces in accordance with code regulations that apply in Glenview, IL, and throughout Cook County, IL.

Why Go with Gas?

Six reasons:

• Much easier to start, stop, and control than a wood-burning fireplace
• Uses real natural gas or propane for authentic flames
• EPA-certified for clean, efficient burns and reduced emissions
• Gorgeous styles and finishes to accent the décor of any room
• Vented gas fireplaces can go in most any wall as long as we can set up a drafting chase adjacent to it on the outside of the house
• Vent-free units have even more installation flexibility

Electric Fireplace Installation

Although electric fireplaces are among the simplest heating appliances to use, they should still be installed by professionals to ensure that the job is done correctly, safely, and beautifully. Lindemann installs premier electric fireplaces in Glenview, IL, and surrounding communities.

Why Go with Electric?

Six reasons:

• Get fast, plentiful heat when you need it
• Glowing “flames” and “embers” are beautiful and realistic
• A switch or a remote controls the heat and firebox visuals
• Electric fireplaces are built to look like traditional fireplaces, with a variety of sizes, finishes, and special touches available
• Can be installed anywhere in your home where there’s a wall with sufficient space – great for zone heating
• High level of safety – no actual flame is produced

Glenview, IL Wood-to-Gas Fireplace Conversions

Some of our customers have asked if they can convert their wood-burning fireplaces to run on gas. In most cases, the answer is yes.

We can install a gas fireplace insert in a traditional masonry fireplace and run the necessary gas lines. The insert drafts through a pipe installed right up the existing chimney with minimal-to-no modifications.

In certain cases, we can convert your manufactured wood-burning wall fireplace to gas as described above. Ask us about it.
