In Florida, a gas fireplace installation typically ranges from $2,500 to $20,000 +, depending on the fireplace type, venting requirements, gas line work, and any custom finishes. The best way to get an accurate price is with an in-home consultation – every home (and wall) is different.
Gas fireplaces use natural gas or propane to produce real flames and heat, making them great for ambiance and warmth. Electric fireplaces run on electricity only, are easier to install, and are mostly decorative. Gas fireplaces feel more authentic and can add more value to a home, while electric fireplaces are lower maintenance.
Yes—most gas fireplace installations in Florida require permits, especially if gas lines or venting are involved. Good news: FP&G handles the permitting process for you, so you don’t have to deal with city paperwork or inspections.
The actual installation usually takes 1–3 days, depending on the complexity. From consultation to permits, ordering, and final install, the full timeline is typically 2–6 weeks. Custom designs or specialty fireplaces may take a bit longer.
Absolutely. Modern gas fireplaces are designed with advanced safety features and are extremely safe when professionally installed and maintained. Florida homes benefit from sealed systems and proper ventilation, which FP&G ensures on every install.
Yes! Converting a wood-burning fireplace to gas is very common and often more convenient. We’ll inspect your existing fireplace, chimney, and gas access to determine the best conversion option – log sets, inserts, or full replacements.
FP&G carries a wide range of premium, industry-trusted fireplace brands, including gas, electric, and modern linear options. We carefully select brands known for performance, efficiency, and design. Our showroom lets you see and compare styles before choosing.
We recommend servicing your fireplace once a year, especially before the cooler months. Regular inspections keep your fireplace safe, efficient, and running smoothly – and help catch small issues before they become expensive ones.
For Florida homes, high-efficiency gas fireplaces or direct-vent models are ideal. They provide ambiance and warmth without overheating your space, making them perfect for mild winters and energy efficiency.
Yes! Custom fireplaces are one of our specialties. Whether you’re going for modern, traditional, or luxury, FP&G can design a fireplace that fits your home’s architecture, finishes, and vibe – inside or out.
Yes. Electric fireplaces are very energy-efficient because they convert almost all the electricity they use directly into heat – no heat loss through vents or chimneys. Many models also let you run the flame effect without heat, so you get ambiance without increasing your energy bill. Win-win.
Nope. Electric fireplaces do not require ventilation, chimneys, or gas lines. They plug into a standard electrical outlet, which makes them one of the easiest and cleanest fireplace options to install – especially for condos, apartments, or homes without existing fireplaces.
Yes, most electric fireplaces can comfortably heat a small to medium-sized room (typically up to 100-250 sq ft, depending on the model). While they’re not meant to replace your home’s HVAC system, they’re great for zone heating and added comfort.
Linear electric fireplaces are extremely versatile. Installation options include:
– Wall-mounted
– Fully recessed into the wall
– Built into custom media walls
– Installed under TVs or inside cabinetry
FP&G can help design the layout so it looks clean, modern, and perfectly integrated with your space.
Outdoor kitchens in Florida typically range from $8,000 to $30,000+, depending on size, materials, appliances, and whether fire features are included. A simple grill island costs less, while fully built kitchens with stone, refrigeration, and fire elements fall on the higher end. Every project is custom, so pricing depends on your vision.
Florida-friendly outdoor kitchens use weather-resistant materials like stainless steel, sealed stone, concrete, porcelain countertops, and marine-grade cabinetry. These materials resist heat, moisture, rust, and corrosion – aka they survive Florida being Florida.
Yes, custom fire features are one of FP&G’s specialties. We design and install custom fire pits, fire bowls, and linear fire features that match your outdoor layout, pool area, and style. Gas-powered options provide clean flames with minimal maintenance.
Most gas-powered outdoor fire features require permits and inspections in Florida. FP&G handles all required permitting, gas line inspections, and code compliance so everything is safe, legal, and stress-free.

– Grills & smokers
– Side burners

– Refrigerators & ice makers
– Sinks & storage

We help design a setup that fits how you actually entertain.
Most outdoor kitchen installations take 4–8 weeks from start to finish, depending on design complexity, permitting, and material availability. The actual construction typically takes 1–2 weeks once permits are approved.
Yes. Gas piping installations in Florida require permits and inspections to meet local and state safety codes. FP&G handles the entire permitting and inspection process, so your installation is fully compliant and worry-free.
Most gas line installations take one day or less once permits are approved. Larger projects—like outdoor kitchens or multiple appliances—may take longer. Overall project timelines depend on permitting, scope, and access points.
Gas line size depends on BTU demand, distance from the gas source, and how many appliances are connected. Undersized gas lines can cause poor performance or safety issues. FP&G calculates the correct line size to ensure proper flow, efficiency, and safety.
Yes. FP&G works on both new construction and existing homes, including remodels and upgrades. Whether your home already has gas service or needs a new line added, our team designs and installs systems that meet current codes and future needs.
Both are excellent options; it depends on your location and usage.
– Natural gas is ideal if it’s available in your area and offers a continuous supply.
– Propane is a great alternative for homes without natural gas access and provides high efficiency and flexibility.
FP&G helps you choose the best option based on availability, cost, and how you plan to use your appliances.
Generator size depends on how much of your home you want powered during an outage. Smaller systems can run essentials like lights, refrigerators, and AC, while larger whole-house generators can power everything. FP&G performs a load calculation to determine the right size—so you’re not underpowered or overpaying.
In Florida, whole-house generator installations typically range from $8,000 to $25,000+, depending on generator size, fuel source, electrical upgrades, and gas piping requirements. A site evaluation gives the most accurate price and avoids surprises.
Yes. Whole-house generators usually require natural gas or propane connections, along with an automatic transfer switch and electrical integration. FP&G handles both gas piping and electrical coordination, ensuring everything works together safely and correctly.
Generators should be serviced once per year, or after extended run times. Regular maintenance includes oil changes, filter replacements, battery checks, and system testing—keeping your generator ready when storms hit (not “starting problems” season).
Absolutely! When professionally installed. Whole-house generators are designed specifically for storm conditions and automatically activate during outages. FP&G installs generators according to Florida building codes and safety standards to ensure reliable, safe operation during hurricanes and severe weather.
Yes, tankless water heaters are a great fit for Florida homes. They provide endless hot water, take up less space, and are more energy-efficient than traditional tank systems. For households that use hot water throughout the day, tankless units can lower energy costs over time.
Most tankless water heater installations take one day. If gas line upgrades, venting changes, or electrical modifications are needed, installation may take a bit longer. FP&G evaluates everything upfront, so there are no surprises.
Sometimes, yes. Tankless water heaters often require proper venting and higher-capacity gas lines to operate efficiently. FP&G handles all necessary gas, venting, and code upgrades to ensure safe and reliable performance.
Tankless water heaters should be flushed and serviced once a year to remove mineral buildup—especially important in Florida’s water conditions. Regular maintenance helps extend the life of the unit and keeps it running at peak efficiency.
Yes. Homes can be converted from electric exterior lighting to gas lamps. The process involves installing a gas line and properly mounting the lamp. FP&G handles the design, gas piping, permits, and installation to ensure everything is safe and code-compliant.
Not significantly. Gas lamps use a relatively small amount of fuel and are designed to burn efficiently. Most homeowners see only a minor increase in gas usage, especially compared to larger appliances like fireplaces or generators.
FP&G offers a wide range of gas lamp styles, including traditional, modern, and coastal designs. Options are available for wall-mounted, post-mounted, and hanging installations. Our team helps you choose a style that complements your home’s architecture and exterior aesthetic.
