Very nice!That's one beautiful fireplace. Natural gas, I'm guessing?Heh, I share in the joy of a new floor thanks to a rather rambunctious puppy.

Even better. I had to stick with a free-standing electric fireplace in my house and admitedly it's not as cool but it's a high-end unit and really does work well. A 1500 watt heater in a 13x20ft room, it does the trick.

Ooh. Nice.Actual hardwood or laminate?I just put laminate in my house a couple of weeks ago. Lots of work, but the results were worth it. Heh, did it just in time to decide to sell the place too.

I see it's on concrete and I noticed the adhesive in the pic, so it must be an engineered plank vs. a solid nail down plank. It should turn out to be a great floor as long as their is no moisture issue with the concrete. Bruce is the best brand name and their engineered plank is very stable and durable. Are you doing the install or getting it done? Keep the pics coming.

having it done. its a little more than I can handle.I installed armstrong swiftlock flooring in my kitchen. this is glue down. I had bruce hardwood floor on it but it was worn (30+ years) out and water damaged.
