Why Do Phoenixville Homeowners Love The Stove Shop?

During the economic recession in the 1970’s, Ted Ryan (founder of The Stove Shop) installed a Vermont Castings wood stove in his Phoenixville home on Saint John’s Circle across the street from Saint John’s Church. He used his wood stove to heat his home and turn down the thermostat to save money on heating oil during a time of great economic uncertainty. Ted lost his job with GE in late 1970 and after a year of searching for work, decided to open The Stove Shop because of his love for his own wood stove. The Stove Shop was founded in 1977 to heat Phoenixville homes reliant on oil with wood stoves and wood fireplace inserts.

We Know Phoenixville Fireplaces

Many Phoenixville homes have masonry chimneys similar to Ted Ryan’s home on Saint John’s Circle. Many of his neighbors living on Russell Road, Cherry Lane and Whitehorse Road purchased a wood fireplace insert for their old inefficient masonry fireplace. Phoenixville has many homes that heat primarily with oil. The Stove Shop offers fuel choice across pellet, wood and gas for homeowners in search of having options for heat during the middle of winter. If you run out of oil, or electricity gets too expensive for home heating, a wood stove or pellet fireplace insert can greatly offset your monthly utility bill.

Finally, Treat Yourself to that Fireplace Upgrade

The Stove Shop supports folks throughout Chester County Pennsylvania by servicing and installing gas fireplaces, wood stoves, pellet inserts and more. Gain the ability to heat your living room by updating your old fireplace to create significant warmth. If you only have electricity or oil as home heating fuel options, consider a second fuel source for your home’s heat.

Actually Heat Where You Live

Fuel choice gives you peace of mind and consistently available warmth no matter what is happening in the world. If your electricity goes out, or you forget to refill your oil tank having access to another fuel is peace of mind. In a complicated world, fire works. Creating actual heat with your fireplace makes your home warm in a way that words can not truly represent. Come feel the simple warmth of fire at The Stove Shop.

Phoenixville’s Fireplace Experts

Many homes in Phoenixville, especially around the historic borough and neighborhoods near Reeves Park, were built with masonry fireplaces that are no longer efficient or safe by modern standards. If you live on Kimberton Road in a historic old home, we have lots of experience upgrading old fireplaces into warm gas firepalce inserts. 

We have installed thousands of wood stoves into homes on Merlin Road, Charlestown Road or West Seven Stars Road. If you home is in the woods where access to natural gas is sparse, we can help even if your home is difficult to access like in the tight corners of Birchrunville. We help Phoenixville homeowners convert outdated fireplaces into efficient wood, gas, or electric systems that meet today’s safety codes while preserving the character of the home. If you live on Nutt Road or on Bridge Street in Phoenixville, it might be difficult to get the wood stove of your dreams due to building restrictions. 

We Have Experience Installing a New Fireplaces into Historic Homes in Kimberton, Chester Springs and Birchrunville

We have found that an electric fireplace or gas fireplace are the perfect solution if you live on the main street in Phoenixville. Homeowners in Mont Clare, Royersford, and Pottstown really love a pellet stove installation in their basement. Pellet stoves and pellet fireplace inserts reduce your overall heating bill by using less electricity or oil. If you burn oil to heat your home in Trappe or Norristown, consider switching over to a pellet stove from our fireplace shop in Phoenixville, PA.

If you have a historic home in Southeastern Pennsylvania, The Stove Shop has decades of experience with projects just like yours. Our focus is on gas fireplaces, wood stoves, pellet inserts. Essentially, if you want to heat a specific space in your home, like a living room or basement, The Stove Shop can help. Residents of Frazer, Malvern and Paoli love our beautiful fireplace showroom with live burning Heat & Glo gas fireplaces, Vermont Castings wood stoves, Harman Pellet Fireplace Inserts and more.

Why Should You Have More than One Fuel Choice for Home Heat?

We have upgraded the heating for homes from Hares Hill Road to Egypt Road and Pawlings Road. Many of these houses throughout Malvern, Oaks and Kimberton are in need of another heating fuel choice. Being stuck heating with oil or electricity puts you in a tight spot if you run out of fuel or the power goes out in a snowstorm. Burning wood, gas or pellet as an alternative fuel choice gives you peace of mind that your home will be warm all winter long.

Heat Where You Live with a New Fireplace or Stove

Fuel choice is essential to keeping your family safe when there is ice on the ground or snow in the sky. If you are cold in your own home or wasting money heating your entire home with electricity; come to our Phoenixville fireplace store, The Stove Shop!

Phoenixville, PA Frequently Asked Fireplace Questions

  • Do older Phoenixville homes need a chimney liner to install a gas or wood insert? Yes, in most cases. Many borough homes near Reeves Park, Church Street, and the historic districts have original masonry flues that are oversized, unlined, or deteriorated. A stainless liner sized to the appliance is typically required for safety, draft, and code compliance.
  • Can you put a gas fireplace or insert into an existing brick fireplace? Absolutely. This is one of the most common upgrades we perform in Phoenixville. Converting an inefficient open masonry fireplace to a sealed gas insert dramatically improves heat output and reduces drafts.
  • Why does my fireplace make the room colder in the winter? Open masonry fireplaces common in Phoenixville homes pull heated air out of the house and send it up the chimney. A sealed insert or direct-vent unit stops this air loss and turns the fireplace into a true heat source.
  • What type of fireplace works best for Phoenixville’s older brick homes? Gas and wood inserts are ideal because they use the existing masonry structure while correcting draft, efficiency, and safety issues. Electric units are also an option where venting is difficult.
  • Can you fix smoke or back-drafting problems in my fireplace? Yes. These issues are very common in older chimneys around the borough due to height, flue size, or masonry deterioration. A proper liner, cap, and appliance match typically resolves it.
  • Do you service homes outside the borough, like near Nutt Road, Valley Forge Road, and the surrounding townships? Yes. We regularly work throughout the 19460 area and surrounding neighborhoods and townships within a short drive of Phoenixville.
  • How long does a typical fireplace insert installation take? Most insert installations of a gas fireplace insert in Phoenixville homes are completed in one day, including liner installation, appliance setup, and testing.
  • Is a gas fireplace worth it if I have oil heat? Very much so. Many Phoenixville homes rely on oil heat. A gas fireplace or insert provides zone heating, lowers oil usage, and adds reliable warmth during winter outages.
  • Can you match the look of my historic fireplace while upgrading it? Yes. We specialize in preserving the character of older Phoenixville fireplaces while upgrading performance using modern inserts and surrounds that fit the original aesthetic.
  • Do you have a showroom close to Phoenixville where I can see fireplaces burning? Yes. We are a short drive from Phoenixville and have live burning displays so you can compare gas, wood, pellet, and electric options in person.
  • What’s the first step if I live in Phoenixville and want to upgrade my fireplace? Schedule an in-home assessment. We’ll evaluate your existing fireplace, chimney, venting, and goals, then recommend the safest and most efficient options for your home.
