Artex Masonry & Fireplace Installation
Gas Fireplaces

Heat & Glo fireplace installation
in Houston.

Heat & Glo builds modern and traditional gas fireplaces. Artex orders the units through a Houston distributor and installs them with the same crew that does the masonry, so the framing, the venting, and the finished surround are all one trade's responsibility. Most of these are sealed direct-vent units, which means combustion air comes from outside and the flue is a pipe run, not a masonry chimney. We have been building fireplaces in this market since 1992 — more than 1,800 fireplaces and chimneys — and every quote is a free written itemized estimate.

Why Houston homeowners choose Heat & Glo

Three reasons
it comes up on our jobs.

  • The glass runs wide and the frame stays thin, which is what most remodels are after.
  • Sealed direct-vent combustion means no room air pulled up the flue and no draft problems.
  • We frame, vent, and finish the surround ourselves, so the opening and the unit actually line up.

A Heat & Glo unit is only as good as the opening it sits in. Most of the work on these jobs is framing, venting, and the surround — see fireplace installation for how we handle a full build, or gas log installation if you are keeping the firebox you have and only changing what burns inside it.
