Repair visits and service visits for gas units

When the igniter sparks but nothing lights

A spark with no flame points somewhere along the path from the valve to the pilot. Air in the supply after other gas work, a blocked pilot orifice, a misaligned igniter or a valve that does not open can all look the same from the room. We separate them one at a time.

Please do not keep pressing start while you wait for the visit. Note how the unit behaved, leave the controls off and describe it to us. The checks that follow depend on the ignition system, so the model details help us arrive with the right information for your unit.

Air shutter settings and flame shape

An air shutter on many gas fireplaces controls the primary air that joins the gas ahead of the burner. The setting affects flame appearance and whether soot forms. It is preset at the factory and some manuals allow adjustment only by a qualified service person.

We check the shutter against the setting in the manual, confirm it is clear of dust and look at the fire once it has warmed up. If adjustment is allowed and needed, it stays within the stated range. If the fire still looks wrong at the right setting, we look for the underlying cause.

Keeping the space around the unit clear

Gas fireplace manuals ask for the area around the appliance to be kept clear of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Clothing, decorations and furniture should also stay away from the hot glass and front.

During service we check the space in front of and around the unit and note anything that sits too close. We cannot move furnishings as part of the repair, but we can explain what the manual expects. Where a shelf or mantel detail seems close to the appliance, we compare it with the manual's figures before commenting.

Thermocouple and thermopile replacement

On standing pilot units, the thermocouple or thermopile turns pilot heat into a small electrical signal that holds the valve open or powers the controls. Over time these elements can weaken, and a dirty pilot can stop them heating properly.

We clean and inspect the pilot first, then test the element as the manual allows. If replacement is needed, we fit the element listed for that valve and pilot. Gas fireplace thermocouple replacement and thermopile replacement are quoted as separate line items so you can see exactly what changed.

Questions about servicing a gas fireplace

Do you clean the glass during a gas fireplace service?

We clean the inside of the glass with a product suited to it and inspect the gasket and frame, as the maintenance list asks. A cracked panel or damaged gasket becomes a separate glass repair with its own price.

Is a workmanship warranty included on gas fireplace repairs?

Yes, our workmanship warranty covers the repair we carry out. Manufacturer parts follow the manufacturer's own terms. The estimate explains both, so you know what each one covers before you approve.

What if a carbon monoxide alarm goes off with the fireplace on?

Get everyone out into fresh air and call 911 from outside. Stay out until the responders say the house is safe to enter. Afterwards, leave the fireplace off until it has been inspected.
