We
just moved to the Back Mountain area last May 2000 and
have always had a wood-burning fireplace. Well it gets
awful cold on the mountains and I wanted an extra reliable
heat source just in case the heat pump went down. Thank
heavens we did not have that happen our first winter in
the area.
We
purchased our first Martin fireplace
from Bob at Back Mountain Gas in January 2001, with the
weathered brick front and had it installed in our family
room. Let me tell you when it is on you can turn the heat
off in the rest of the downstairs. It certainly lives
up to heating 2500 sq. feet.
We
purchased our second Martin
fireplace also from Bob at Back Mountain Gas this past
April and got a good deal. This one had the hand painted
tiles and wonderful wood curio top made by Dave out of
Danville, PA. This was installed in the master bedroom
and has already been in use the past few cold nights.
I will tell you it was not an easy installation, but they
made it look easy.
All
I can tell you is I did not think I would like gas fireplaces,
having been an old wood guy all my life. I like them for
their efficiency, and cost is relatively light. They are
great to look at and make a room, no, a home, well worth
the small investment.
Bob
and his technicians who have installed and serviced the
fireplaces and LP bottles are very professional and know
their stuff. As for the workmanship, prep, and cleanup
I have not found any other technicians coming into any
of my homes over the years, who were as courteous, clean,
and when they left you never knew they were there.
I
intend on using Back Mountain Gas for my LP gas and for
more LP equipment such as a tankless water heater which
offers instant hot water, and possibly a backup main home
heat source.
Trust
me when I say I do not give testimonials lightly. Bob
and his team should be complimented on their commitment
to customer service.
