Fosseen's Home & Hearth

Fosseen's Home & Hearth has served Yakima homeowners for fireplace sales, service, and repairs for over two decades. With 113 reviews averaging 4.5 stars, the locally owned shop handles natural gas, propane, and wood-burning units including inserts and traditional stoves. The team provides same-day service for emergency calls and works on all major brands. Residents across Yakima and the surrounding Valley communities rely on Fosseen's for everything from routine annual maintenance to complete fireplace replacements.

What distinguishes Fosseen's is their commitment to transparent, customer-first service rather than aggressive upselling. Multiple reviewers note the technicians take time to explain what they're doing and teach homeowners basic maintenance like cleaning pilot lights and replacing glass doors. The shop stocks replacement parts for older fireplace inserts, including specialty items like battery covers that other retailers cannot locate. Their service department handles both modern zero-clearance units and vintage pot belly stoves that require specialized care.

Richard, one of Fosseen's senior technicians, appears repeatedly in five-star reviews for his diagnostic skill and thoroughness. One customer called after neglecting fireplace maintenance for several years; Richard cleaned the unit, made repairs, and had it operating like new. Another homeowner brought in a photo of an older insert and left ten minutes later with a matched battery cover she installed herself. A third reviewer praised Richard for reviving two 12-year-old fireplaces so effectively they perform like new units.
