Youngstown Propane entered the fireplace business in the fall of 1987. With just one "burning display" the main focus of sales were gas logs and other furnishings, mainly tool sets and glass enclosures. As the years passed by the company began selling gas direct-vent, vent free, and wood burning zero clearance fireplaces. Constantly changing as the industry did, the focus of the fireplace business became the installation of direct-vent fireplaces in the builders' market and across the counter, then leaning a bit more toward vent free gas as its' popularity grew. Most recently a surge in sales has come from wood stoves and wood inserts. The company carries a full line of all of the above and now has over 40 burning displays between the 2 showrooms while maintaining a variety of fireside furnishings. Recognizable brand names such as Heat-n-Glo, Heatilator, Thermorite, and Mendota Hearth have become signatures of the high quality product provided by the largest full service fireplace company between Pittsburgh and Cleveland. |
