Howie Mandel loves pranks, and with help from the Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan, he was ready to pull off the ultimate ruse: a surprise home makeover for Rich, his best friend and road manager of 30 years. Rich lived in his bachelor pad condo, complete with beer can wall and bottlecap table, for 15 years. Howie wanted to transform the space into a stylish home where his friend could entertain and relax. Together, they reimagined the main floor to create a space with ambiance and contemporary finishes, tied together with a modern, and frameless, Flare Left Corner Fireplace.

Rich is the type of guy who appreciates a warm fire, so we really wanted to make sure we got him a proper gas fireplace. Considering the condo’s unusual venting, we thought we might have to settle for an electrical unit, but at the last minute, found this beautiful Left Corner direct vent option from Flare Fireplaces. Not only did it allow us to draft the fireplace naturally, but it slots into the corner of the room seamlessly. Letting you appreciate it from any angle. The Cool Touch Wall and edge to edge Double Glass help make the fireplace and the gorgeous surround safe while allowing for more control of the heat into the space using the built in thermostatic control.

I work at an Architecture firm and called for some technical assistance on a room-dividing unit. In the past, other companies have just answered my questions with as little detail as possible just to get off the phone. The guy who answered my phone call at Flare Fireplaces (Kyle) went above and beyond and walked me through the entire set up of the unit, toured me through different diagrams on the website so I could visually see what he had explained, and then followed up with an email with EVERYTHING I needed. I tend to ask a lot of questions, and I never once felt like he was annoyed or that he was trying to pawn me off. I never leave 'reviews', but this was such a positive experience, I had to leave one. You can tell this is a great company and the employees are very passionate about their product. I highly recommend!.
