The Narrow Faceplate is U-shaped and used when the fireplace insert is going to be tight inside the fireplace and there is not much gap between the unit and the existing opening. It also provides the fireplace insert with an even more modern look. The U-Shaped Narrow Faceplate measures 1.75″ on three sides.

The Narrow Faceplate is a 4-sided faceplate used when the insert is tight inside the fireplace and there is not much gap between the unit and the existing opening. This will provide the insert with a thin flashing and modern appearance. You could elevate the insert by adding a row of bricks on the fireplace floor to raise the stove and the bottom portion of the Narrow Faceplate will give the insert the boxed in appearance of a picture frame.

The 32″ x 50″ Cuttable Faceplate is used to flash around the fireplace insert when there is a wide gap between the insert and the fireplace opening. The Cuttable Faceplate is 16 gauge and can be cut using a grinder with a cutoff wheel. You can cut the faceplate to any shape needed. If you have a nice arched fireplace, you can cut the faceplate to match the arch preventing the flashing from covering a decorative arch.

The Moulded Refractory Panel Kit is a great way to enhance the heat inside the stove which provides for a cleaner burning unit.

Hands down the best experience we’ve had with a company doing work on our home. We found them through an internet search, looking for quotes for a complete chimney overhaul. From the first phone call to the day, they completed the work, everyone we talked to was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly! Yup, they were all nice people! We noticed a small issue after they were finished. Within 24 hours, the owner had been out to look at it and a technician was sent out to correct the problem. And they were, again, nice, and completely understanding about it. We couldn’t be happier with the result. We highly recommend ACS to everyone!
We had to have a rebuild done on our chimney. They were very professional and worked hard. What a wonderful job they did! They took away all the old bricks and cleaned them up after they were done. Our chimney looks fantastic. The pricing was very affordable. Thank you, Affordable Chimney!
Brandon, the Affordable Chimney Sweeps technician, inspected my chimney and found a dangerous problem that had been missed by another company’s inspector. As a result, I contracted to have Affordable replace the chimney liners and do other repairs to both the fireplace and heating exhaust systems. Their quoted price was 20% lower than the others. The estimated time for the work was 2.5 days. They came in on time and worked hard without breaks until the rain started late in the afternoon. They came back the next day and surprisingly finished in a couple of hours. They worked hard, they were courteous, and they answered all my questions. They cleaned up carefully. They earned their 5 stars.
