There are a few things you want when shopping for a fireplace. 1) Knowledgeable Sales people 2)…read moreGreat Price 3) Great service during and post purchase. With that said, Ember Fireplace was all those things and more. 1) Knowledgeable sales People - Keith and Martha are like no other. Ember fireplace was the 7th place we visited (because my husband is the type of person that needs to SEE EVERYTHING before making a decision) and there is a DISTINCT difference in knowledge that this pair has versus anyone else. They answered all of my husband's anal questions and were able to provide education above and beyond anyone else. When Keith come over our house for measurements, he help adjust our fireplace design to optimize the air flow and heat from our unit, we didn't get that type of feedback from anyone else when we showed them the design. Genius! 2) Great Price - Beat all other places we went to! 3) Great service during and post purchase - Martha kept us in the loop on timing of our delivery (which took a while from overseas). Keith was fantastic with the install, doing and redoing anything that wasn't perfect, adding stones and being patient with me and I angled them over and over. If you are in the market for a fireplace, and you want people that know what they are doing and are a pleasure to work with, this should be your first and only stop. I'm happy to be done with my fire place, but even happier about my experience with this team.

Mike had no problem collecting a $250 deposit and then continued to gaslight my wife and I into thinking we were simply waiting for a part for the next 13 months. In that time, she became pregnant and having an operational fireplace would have come in very handy, but instead we compromised on having NONE of our phone calls returned and almost zero communication. Calling Hot Concepts unprofessional would be an insult to some of the bad businesses on Staten Island. I'm only giving it 1-star because the option for negative stars doesn't exist. Do not hit send on that phone call if you're thinking about calling him. There are responsive fireplace repair businesses elsewhere. please do some due diligence and don't say you weren't warned.

That level of care is rare these days. If you want fast, fair-priced, and truly professional chimney/heating service, call Chimney Professionals.

If you are going to install anything yourself or have someone other than their installer do this…read moreAVOID these people. We bought a ventless gas log set from them. I wanted to support a local business and had naïvely felt that they would stand behind what they sold so I did not mind paying the extra money. I would have been way better off buying it on Amazon or another site online! I already had the gas line so I just needed to replace the old log set. First of all, when my wife picked it up you must sign a waiver that says you have a total of 24 hours to inspect everything. Then they have a clause in the waiver that states it may need "FINE" tuning. They also claim they do not do the installation and support they have contractors that do it, but their website clearly states they do installs and service. I installed the unit and it would run for a minute and turn off. I went to the manufactures website and found out you cannot contact them or get support; you must contact the dealer you bought it from. I called to find out how to get it fixed under warranty. Now even though the website is covered with service and support options I was told they don't do the service or support I needed to call their contractor and schedule a service call. When you call the contractor it sends you back to Albers to schedule the service call ?????? Oh, and that is $300. The tech came out and found out the thermocouple was not near the pilot light, and he needed to take it all apart then move the pilot light and the thermocouple, so they got next to each other and aligned. I have a checkout sheet with the unit that states who built it and tested it, it all says it was all tested and passed. So, I called back again to see how I could get credit for the fixing the manufactures defect. I was now told that since they did not have to replace any parts it was not a manufactures defect in workmanship it was a "FINE TUNING" and therefore it was not covered, and I had to pay the $300 myself. So, I should not expect to pay over $2000 for a gas log set and then expect it to work out of the box. Imagine if you bought a fancy gas stove and one of the burns did not light so you called Maytag and they fixed it and handed you a bill for $300 tow day safter you bought it. Albers sees no problem with this. If I had just bought it from Amazon or another online vendor I could have packed it up and got another one that was manufactured correctly. Instead, it cost me extra to by it and then $300 extra to get it to work.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention their honesty. There was absolutely no attempt to upsell me or convince me that I needed anything unnecessary. Matthew and Scott were genuine, knowledgeable, honest, and just genuinely nice people to have in my home. I will always use Central Jersey Fireplace for any of my future fireplace needs.
