Testimonials

On 3/26/2026 Gary Levin had this to say:
Extrremely friendly and knowledgeable regarding the ventless fireplace installation, and maintenance. They answered all my questions and even anticipated some of my concerns. They installed two ventless gas fireplace logs. They arrived on time and completed the installation in a timely manor. We received a lesson in using the remote, replacing batteries and simple maintenance. I could not be happier with the installation and of course the gas logs. Now we just have to wait till it get cold again to enjoy warmth from our fireplaces without treking in firewood and worrying about having Smoke and carbon monoxide wisping out of them.

On 3/6/2026 James had this to say:
Doug is the Rocket Scientist of wood stoves! The assistant John was amazing! Install was challenging and took several onsite visits. They got the job completed and didn't charge me extra. Testimonial written by James on this site.

On 2/11/2026 Danny had this to say:
Ashlee was great getting me the perfect logs for our firebox. I really appreciated her professionalism and knowledge. She was able to place my order, get the logs here and installed in just under one week. They beat every competitor’s price by several hundred dollars and were super responsive and great to work with. Jon installed the logs and was super informative and even help me trouble shoot and get my other set of gas logs operational while he was here! Can’t say enough good things about the experience, service, quality of the logs and price. Definitely 5 star plus!

On 2/2/2026 Stefanie Lewers had this to say:
I had a ton of questions and Doug answered them all. He gave me a great referral for the chimney and firebox work I needed. As soon as that work was done, Jon came out and installed the log set. Everyone I have spoken with at Grate Balls Afire has been incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I am so happy to have this fireplace running in my old 1910 house. It is going to make a big difference when it’s cold out. I highly recommend Grate Balls Afire.
