How a vent-free gas fireplace gets diagnosed
Household odors and a settled vent-free unit
A vent-free unit that has settled in should burn without a lasting smell. The manuals list household sources such as cleaners, paint, new carpet and scented products, which the flame can turn into something more noticeable. They also list burner faults that do the same.
Tell us when the odor started and what changed in the room around that time. We ask a few questions to rule out gas before booking a routine visit. Then we check the flame, the logs and the room before suggesting any repair.
A whistle from a vent-free log set
A whistle while a vent-free unit burns usually comes from gas or air moving through a narrow gap. The manuals list pressure and debris near the burner or air openings among the causes. Sometimes a scrap of ember material or a small stone sits where it should not.
We listen at the burner, then check pressure and the openings. Moving one misplaced piece can end the noise. Where the sound comes from the control or the supply side, we say so and explain which trade handles it.
How the inspection discount works on vent-free repairs
When you approve vent-free work in the 72 hours after your free inspection in Pembroke Park, 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.
Children, pets and a vent-free gas fire
A vent-free unit's glass, screen and surrounds get hot while it burns. The manuals ask that children and pets be kept away and that the screen stay in place. Pet hair also finds its way into the pilot and ports.
We check the screen and point out the hot surfaces on your model. If pets share the room, we may suggest more frequent cleaning of the pilot intakes. Any extra cleaning appears on the estimate as a line you approve.

Before your vent-free fireplace visit
What should I do if I smell gas near the unit?
Leave the house with everyone inside, without lighting anything or touching switches. Once you are outdoors, call your gas utility or 911 and follow their instructions. Stay out until they clear the house, and keep the fireplace off afterward.
Is a vent-free unit meant to heat the whole house?
No. The Florida fuel gas code says unvented room heaters may not be the sole source of comfort heating in a home, and the manuals call them supplemental. They warm a room, with that room's air and volume in mind.
Can I dust the logs myself between service visits?
Light dusting is fine when the unit is off and cool, using a soft brush or a vacuum with a brush attachment and no cleaning fluids. Note each log's position against the diagram first, and leave the pilot and burner to us.
