"Watch out for this scam job business. We were sent here to buy a Peterson Ngas log set which we were scammed by The Victorian Fireplace Shop(see review).
Salesman@Jesse told us THEY were the exclusive Peterson dealer for this area and that the above store was in violation of Peterson's warranty delivery/sales area. We were also told that before a sale could be taken we MUST have the Frederick County gas line permit "pulled" to verify we were "in code".
We had no permit due to the fact the plumber who installed the initial fireplace(wood) conversion to natural gas scammed us also! Turned out when we asked for permit he was an unlicensed plumber in Frederick County!
So Jesse referred us to the licensed Frederick County plumber they use to instal their products. This being Melron Plumbing.
Upon setting up an appointment and inspection, Melron told us he was a licensed Frederick County plumber and told me that he would get the permit and call us in the next few days.
We waited and called for 3 weeks only to find out that Jesse's "so called licensed Frederick County plumber" was indeed NOT a licensed County plimber yet he had installed numerous gas fireplaces in the County!
When Jesse was confronted with this fact he then told us that The Fireplace Store had been scammed by Melron!
I aked if that was so how did he "pull" the permits before installing all the 15-20 years of gas fireplaces???
He would not and couldnot answer.
We then called Peterson, Inc in California only to find out that this dealer wasNOT an authorized dealer to install their products in Frederick County!! Only 1 dealer was and it was not them!

We reported them to the BBB and Maryland Attorney General Consumer Division for fraud and misrepresentation.
If you live in Frederick County DO NOT BUY FROM THESE SCAM ARTISTS!!!
