A Fireplace Built in Delta for a New Westminster Living Room

Regency fireplaces are designed and built by FPI Fireplace Products International at its plant in Delta, BC. That means the fireplace in your living room was engineered for Lower Mainland winters by people who live here, the parts come from a warehouse in the same region, and the limited lifetime warranty is backed by a company with its head office in the Lower Mainland. At a time when a lot of New Westminster homeowners are choosing Canadian-made where they can, a Regency fireplace is one of the few pieces of home equipment where that choice is easy. Napoleon, our second line, is also Canadian, built in Barrie, Ontario. Gas fireplace installation from a Regency authorized dealer means we sell, install, and service the line.

A Regency fireplace is also more customizable than most fireplaces. The same unit can be finished as a traditional log fire with a cast-look faceplate that suits a 1912 Sapperton living room, or as a clean linear flame over glass crystals or stones that suits a Victoria Hill townhome with a flat surround. The faceplate comes in several profiles and finishes, the interior panels come in brick, black steel, or reflective enamel, and the fire bed can be logs, driftwood, crystals, or stones. The free estimate visit is where the technician measures the opening, shows you what fits, and walks through those choices with you.

The openings are as varied as the houses. Queen's Park and Sapperton have brick fireplaces with 1990s and 2000s gas inserts now 20 to 30 years old. The Quayside and Uptown towers have 30-year-old open-front gas fireplaces, hundreds of them, that a modern insert replaces without changing the vent on the outside of the building. Queensborough and Victoria Hill townhomes have framed builder fireplaces from the 2000s. In every case the new unit goes into the opening the old one came out of, the faceplate covers the edge, and the brick, tile, stone, mantel, and hearth stay as they are. The full list of our New Westminster HVAC services is on the hub page for the city. Eaton's Heating is TSBC licensed (LGA0200006), a Home Performance Contractor Network member, and holds a 4.9 rating across 400-plus Google reviews.

Not every replacement is a whole new unit. If the fireplace is sound and only the look is dated, a new 18-inch or 24-inch log set gives the unit a new fire for a fraction of a replacement, and it is done in a couple of hours. If the firebox is rusted through, the parts are no longer made, or you want a different fireplace, the whole unit comes out and a new Regency or Napoleon goes in. On installation day the old fireplace is disconnected and removed, the new one is set into the opening, the gas and vent are connected, the faceplate is fitted, and the fireplace is run. Most replacements are finished in one day, we take the old unit away, and the Regency warranty is registered on your behalf.

The Regency E18E, the Fireplace We Install Most in New Westminster

The E18E is the Regency insert built for one job: replacing an older open-front gas fireplace with a modern sealed unit, using the vent that is already there. That describes most of the fireplaces in New Westminster's 1990s apartment towers and many of the builder units in Sapperton and Uptown from the same years. The old fireplaces have an open front, a standing pilot, and no glass, and they send most of their heat up the vent. The E18E slides into that opening, connects to the existing vent with no change to the termination on the outside wall, and in most cases keeps the surround you have. What you get is a sealed glass front, electronic ignition, a fan, a remote, and a fire that puts its heat into the room.

It is the unit we install most here because it fits the buildings. It goes into a condo without touching the building's exterior, into a townhome without opening the wall, and into a detached house where a small insert is the right size for the room. It takes the same faceplate, panel, and fire bed choices as the larger Regency inserts, so a Quayside living room can have a traditional log fire and the unit next door can have crystals. When the opening is larger or the room needs more heat, the Liberty and Horizon inserts are the next size up, and the estimate visit shows you which one your opening takes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question about your HVAC system? Book an appointment using the form below, or call (604) 535-8434 for immediate help.

How much does a new gas fireplace cost in New Westminster?

Most replacements into an existing opening land between $5,000 and $7,500 installed, with the unit, the faceplate, the connections, the removal of the old fireplace, and the setup included. A new log set in a fireplace that is still sound is well below that. The free estimate gives you the exact number for your opening and your choices, in writing, before anything is ordered.

Can I keep my surround and just change the fireplace?

Yes, and that is how most replacements here go. The new unit is sized to the opening and its faceplate covers the edge where the old fireplace met the brick or tile, so the surround, the mantel, and the hearth stay exactly as they are. If you want a different look at the edge, that comes from the faceplate choice, not from touching the wall.

Can I get a Regency fireplace with crystals instead of logs?

Yes. Regency inserts take a log set, a driftwood set, glass crystals, or stones in the fire bed, and the choice is made at the estimate. Crystals and stones suit the linear look in a modern room; logs suit a traditional faceplate in an older house. Any of them can be changed later, because the fire bed sits on top of the burner and is not built into the unit.

Will a new fireplace fit the old brick fireplace in my Queen's Park house?

Almost always. Regency inserts are made in sizes that fit the large majority of existing openings, and the estimate visit measures yours. The new insert goes into the brick firebox where the current one sits, connects to the existing vent, and gets a faceplate sized to cover the opening. The brick itself is not touched.

How long does the installation take?

Most fireplace replacements are done in one day, and a log set change in a couple of hours. The old unit comes out in the morning and the new one is connected and finished by the afternoon. The unit is ordered after the estimate is approved, so the day is booked once it arrives.

My fireplace still works. Is it worth replacing?

If it lights and the only complaint is the look, a log set change or a cleaning from our gas fireplace repair in New Westminster team may be all it needs. Replacement makes sense when the firebox is rusted, the parts are discontinued, or the fireplace is an old open-front unit that sends its heat up the vent; a sealed modern insert puts far more of the gas into the room and runs on a thermostat. The estimate is free, and the technician tells you plainly which one your fireplace needs.
