Such a frustrating and disappointing…

Such a frustrating and disappointing experience. We ordered 2 fireplaces from them. One electric and one propane. The electric one is fine, but definitely not as impressive as the photos looks online. I feel I could have purchased this at Lowes for less than 1/2 the price I paid to NCF. The linear propane fireplace was shipped with the wrong size orifice (causing the flame to be dangerous and about 3-4 times the size of what it should be) unbeknownst to us, and we had several weeks of troubleshooting during which we had various fireplace/gas techs come out to diagnose the issue. During all of this, the techs and my husband were talking with Ryan in NCF tech support, sending photos and videos of the oversized flames (which burned the logs we purchased with the unit and some of the surrounding material on the outside of the fireplace). Ryan was not able to diagnose the issue and finally a tech from our gas provider was able to identify that the incorrect orifice size was sent with the fireplace. We spent $400+ in diagnostic and installation fees after the fact, and we asked NCF to reimburse us since it was theirs and Empire's mistake. Empire did pay for the replacement of the orifice, but did not pay for the diagnostic fee that was incurred when the issue was finally identified and we could order the correct size orifice. NCF states that because we did not have a licensed contractor install the fireplace, they will not pay for any diagnostic fee as per the warranty. We had a county inspector come after the gas and fireplace had been installed and he signed off saying that all had been installed correctly. This, after we spent weeks speaking with Ryan @ NCF and him getting videos and photos of the flames and he basically wanted us to disassemble the entire unit to access hidden areas which no fireplace tech was willing to do. In the back and forth I had with NCF over the last two weeks, I feel like they were looking for an out to not have to reimburse us because we did not have a licensed contractor install the unit (which was deemed correctly installed by the county inspector). They claim that a licensed contractor would have known the flames were too high, but Ryan at NCF was not able to see that via the numerous photos and videos we sent him! I don't think that this is a company that supports and values its customers. My response to Sean's reply: There are no "inaccuracies" in my review. Everything transpired exactly as I relayed in my review. Ryan was not present, as stated in my review, but we sent him many photos and a video in which it should have been obvious to anyone who was familiar with the fireplace that the flames were much too large. The gas company required that we have the fireplace installed before the gas was, so they could hook it up correctly. I resent your stating that my review was inaccurate. You should be absolutely clear when selling a fireplace what your warrant requires of a new customer. For the record, here are two points I didn't even bring up in my review: I did not ask for reimbursement for the burnt birch logs and we received the wrong manual for the linear fireplace. This is really not applicable anyway since the flame height was the issue, but just another way in which your company failed us.

Reply from North Country Fire2026-06-10

Birgit, this is Sean, owner of North Country Fire. I’m sincerely sorry this became such a stressful experience for you. Seeing oversized flames would be alarming, and I do not want to minimize that. While our 5-star reviews are our favorites, our 1-star reviews are often our biggest opportunities to inform future customers. I need to clear up some inaccuracies, and misconceptions for future customers. This is meant to be informative - not argumentative. The fireplace was supplied with an incorrect orifice. That should not have happened. The correct orifice was provided at no charge. That said, an incorrect orifice is exactly the type of issue that would be caught if the manufacturers installation instructions were followed. It is the homeowner’s responsibility to hire qualified professionals for gas-appliance installation. Installers are required to follow applicable fuel-gas code, local requirements, and the manufacturer’s installation manual. We state this on our product pages and in our published policies. Final commissioning cannot be completed until the appliance is connected to gas and fire-tested by a qualified professional. That professional must verify burner operation, flame characteristics, orifice configuration, etc. before the unit is turned over for use. That process exists specifically to catch issues like incorrect orifice size before damage occurs. You stated, “NCF states that because we did not have a licensed contractor install the fireplace, they will not pay for any diagnostic fee as per the warranty.” Due to safety and professional standards, manufacturer requirements, and published policies, we must uphold these requirements consistently. I can’t overstate this: applicable fuel-gas code, manufacturer installation requirements, and gas-appliance commissioning standards are not optional. Where adopted by the governing jurisdiction, fuel-gas code is legally enforceable. You stated, “We had a county inspector come after the gas and fireplace had been installed and he signed off saying that all had been installed correctly.” You also stated, “we did not have a licensed contractor install the unit,” while implying that a county inspection qualified the unit for use. That implication is inaccurate. An inspection sign-off does not turn an unqualified gas-appliance installation into a properly commissioned appliance. The inspection did not qualify the unit. I also need to stand behind our technical support team. Ryan and our technical staff are highly experienced and very good at what they do. But remote technical support is not a substitute for a qualified technician on site. You stated that “Ryan was not able to diagnose the issue.” Ryan was not performing on-site diagnostics. He was providing remote technical support - the technicians on-site were conducting the diagnostics. Additionally, some standard diagnostic procedures requested by Ryan were not completed by the on-site technicians, which limited what could be verified remotely and limited our ability to assist further. If the manual you received was not the correct manual for your exact fireplace model, the installation should not have proceeded until the correct manual was obtained. A qualified installer is required to install and commission the appliance using the correct manufacturer installation manual for that specific model. Had we been notified that the manual was incorrect, we would have provided the correct version. Please send us photos of the manual cover and model information, and we will make sure you have the correct manual for your records. Our team spent significant time communicating with the on-site parties, reviewing the information provided, and coordinating the correct replacement orifice through the manufacturer. We are truly sorry this was stressful and frustrating. But on gas-appliance safety, manufacturer requirements, warranty standards, and professional standards, we have to be firm and consistent. Sean

Top Notch !!

I was so lucky to have reached Dean! I had a very difficult situation where the builder at my new construction home informed me they were “missing” parts and they could not continue to install. Not even knowing exactly what they were missing - i called and spoke with Dean who tirelessly went through all the details with me until I understood and we were able to figure out exactly what was needed. throughout the process he was not only extremely knowledgeable and helpful, but truly enjoyable to speak with. You are lucky to have him representing your company!!! I will absolutely use your company on my next build - as long as Dean can coordinate :) Thank you Dean!!! Carolyn Russo The CRC Group
