Vent-free fireplace service, from pilot to room
Replacing an ODS pilot with the same model
When cleaning does not restore a steady pilot, the assembly is replaced. One maker states that a failed oxygen depletion sensor pilot should be replaced with the same model. Pilots that look alike can still react to air at different points.
We order the pilot listed for your burner and fuel, fit it as the manual shows and leak check every joint. Then the unit runs while we watch the pilot and the main flame. The written record notes the part fitted, so later service can confirm it.
Roaring at the vent-free burner orifice
A roar from the burner, louder than the soft rush of normal gas flow, is on the troubleshooting lists. High pressure at the burner is one cause. A damaged or wrong orifice is another, and so is a burner that is not seated correctly.
We measure pressure and look at the orifice and the burner fit. If the pressure is high from the supply, that belongs to the gas utility or a gas contractor, and we explain why. If the fault is at the appliance, the fix goes on the estimate as its own line.
How the inspection discount works on vent-free repairs
When you approve vent-free work in the 72 hours after your free inspection in Naranja, 10% comes off the agreed price. The window starts at your own inspection, not at a date on a calendar. It covers cleaning, fitted parts and maintenance visits alike.
The written estimate shows the price with the discount applied, so you can compare the lines easily. Take the time you need to read it, and ask any question during the visit while the unit is in front of us. The discount applies to work approved inside that window.
Watching a vent-free unit through a longer burn
Some faults show only after a vent-free unit has run for a while. The pilot may hold at first and drop once the room warms or the air changes. A short test with the unit lit for a moment can miss that entirely.
When the symptom points that way, we run the unit long enough to see it. We watch the pilot and flame as the room warms, with doors and fans set the way you normally have them, and note any change. The written record says how long the unit ran and what we saw.

Questions about vent-free fireplace service
Can the oxygen depletion sensor be adjusted or bypassed?
No. The manuals forbid adjusting or tampering with the ODS pilot. When it misbehaves, it is cleaned as the maker describes or replaced with the same listed model. A unit that cannot be made right stays off until it can.
Can a vent-free log set go into any prefab fireplace?
Only into a factory-built fireplace listed and labeled for unvented gas logs. The Florida Building Code says so, and some fireplace manuals state they were not tested with them. We read both labels before servicing the logs.
What happens during a free inspection of a ventless unit in Naranja?
We identify the model from its rating plate, look at the pilot, burner, logs and room, and explain what we found. You receive a written estimate with each item separate, and nothing is done until you approve it.
