Cool to see you and your wife working on it together!
Thanks Julio, we try sometimes 😂
Exactly what I’m considering doing... thanks for sharing and showing how it can be done.

Beautiful 🤩!
Thank you!!
Great Job!
Thank you sue! We really appreciate your support! 🤙🤙
Awesome Work!
Thank you! Cheers!
That's a really nice job 👍👍👍👍. I'm for sure trying this or those shiplap MDF or real wood
Thanks! It will definitely stand out in your room!
This is so good and exactly what I needed! Thank you so much. I just wished you had a written guide to this as sometimes I get confused.
Thanks for the support! You know that wouldn't be a bad idea, i honestly hate reading blogs and posts and would rather watch a video, but my wife is completely opposite. Maybe a blog one day. 🤘
Man that looks like something straight off of hgtv!
Thanks brother!
Curious about your electrical. Did you leave that surge protector behind and just plug everything into that? Was that one outlet/breaker able to support everything for your tv and the fireplace on one? How many volts on that breaker? Thanks.
Hey Jacob, I just plugged the fireplace directly into the outlet, and used a small extension cord to get the outlet to the access hole behind the TV.
I believe the curcut it a regular 25 amp but the fireplace doesn't dra any more power than a normal space heater and the only other thing plugged in is the TV and a router that sits behind it.
So pretty low draw.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you for the support!
Noticed at 6:31, there’s 2 extra what look like 2x4s inside of your fireplace frame that weren’t there prior. Can you elaborate on this? Planning materials to follow this guide for ourselves. Thanks!
For sure, those were used to adjust on how far the fireplace sits in the framing.
Hey, I love this. My spouse is looking to build this, but my only question is where do you put your cable boxes? Are they hidden behind tv?
Thanks! We dont use cable boxes, we stream and only had a modem hidden behind the Tv.
Hi can you please let me know the distance between the top of the heater and the lower part of the mantle. Is there a regulation? Also does the mantle get hot?
Yvonne, the mantle is 7 inches above and it doesn't really get hot. I don't believe there is a regulation but you could check your area. It's basically just a space heater mounted to the wall.
Thanks for supporting our channel! 🤙🤙
@@BreakFreeHomestead thank you. We love the way you built the fireplace. We are building one too. We bought this electric heater with the top vent, similar to yours, should of bought one with a front vent, but thanks to your video, I can have my fireplace now.
I suppose you wouldn't need the backerboard on there huh? I am thinking about doing just primed shiplap and paint over it.
You could skip it if you are using a thicker material, but if you're using the .25 inch I would keep the backer.
I’m curious about electrical as well. Are you able to pull the fireplace insert out easily if you need to get to the outlet for whatever reason?
Last question: since the side braces were off the wall at an angle, did you nail just the corners in to the studs?
Audrey, thanks for watching! To remove the insert we would have to remove the side trim and one shiplap piece. You could possibly not cover one of the pieces with the trip and try to put hinges on it for more frequent access.
Yes we just screwed the frame into the existing studs of the wall.
Thanks for joining us 👍👍
I'm curious, how wide is this set up. I plan to do the same thing at 4 ft wide.
This is just over 4 foot, we used a single length of plywood and the trim extends past to finish it off.
Did you notch the 2 x4 to go over the baseboard?
Nope I didn't. If you did you might get a tighter fit.
Always sand with your open toe sandals. Comfort is key!
Noted! You're the man!!!
He had on protective socks with those sandals.. he’s covered 👍🏻
@@caliautotech21 steel-toe socks
Oh.. I was thinking composite
Tv looks…hmmm…big. Otherwise, good tutorial
TV that high doesn't hurt your neck?
Nope! I think it's perfect, our ceiling is only 8 foot.
@@BreakFreeHomestead Do you have theater seating? If you sit on a regular sofa, you have to look up at a weird angle.
Nope, just a normal couch but there's no issue. It's all personal preference and you could just lower it when you build it.
@@BreakFreeHomestead BTW, your build looks really nice. I am just worried about your neck. I spend all day at work worried about my postures and all. Be healthy stay home and enjoy your set up.
@@raymondchow8722 thank you, I appreciate it!
