Glass that doesn't seal

Does the glass front rattle, sit crooked or show a gap along the gasket? On a sealed gas fireplace, the glass has to be properly seated and sealed, or combustion products can leak into the room.

Latches, frame and gasket get checked, the glass is reseated, and a worn or torn gasket is replaced with the maker's part. Cracked glass is replaced before the unit is used again. It's a quick job with a real safety payoff. The gasket is the maker's own part. Talk to our pros about the glass seal on your fireplace in Bell by dialing (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Wasps and nests in the vent

Insects and birds can build in the outside termination of a gas fireplace in Bell, especially over months when it isn't used. A blocked termination can make the unit shut down or burn poorly. Our pros check the termination and clear what's there, and they'll suggest whether a guard listed by the vent maker is available for your termination. Clearing it before the next use keeps the unit venting properly.

What a healthy flame looks like

Each gas fireplace manual describes, and in most cases pictures, how the flame should look once the unit has warmed up. Many log sets are designed with yellow, lively flames, and some burners show more blue, so the manual is the reference for your unit.

Our specialists let the unit run long enough to settle, then compare the flame with the manual. Soot on the logs or glass, flames lifting off the burner, or a flame much bigger or smaller than pictured all point to a cause.

From there, they check logs, burner ports, air shutter and pressure in turn, and record only what they've measured.

Keeping hands off hot glass

Gas fireplace glass can get hot enough to burn a hand that touches it. The 2015 revisions to ANSI Z21.88 and Z21.50, the safety standards for these units, call for a protective barrier on units whose glass gets hotter than a threshold the standard sets, and that barrier is meant to stay installed.

Every service includes making sure the barrier is in place and undamaged. On older units made before the change, our specialists look up whether the maker offers a barrier kit.

In homes with small children or pets, it's one of the most useful parts on the fireplace. The part and fitting are priced separately.

Smells that are normal and smells that aren't

A new gas fireplace, or one lit for the first time in months, can smell of hot paint or burning dust for a short while. Makers describe that as normal and advise ventilating the room until it passes.

A rotten-egg smell is different: that's the odorant added to gas, and it means gas is escaping. Manuals tell you to get out first and phone the gas supplier from outside, before touching any switch or control.

After the gas company has made it safe, our pros can check the unit and tell you which kind of smell you had and what caused it.

FAQs

What people ask when a gas unit acts up

Does the valve need replacing?

Only if testing says so. Maker troubleshooting charts have the valve replaced last, after the sensors and switch test good, and our pros follow that order with a meter.

Can you fix a fireplace that got wet?

Makers say not to use a unit if any part was under water. Our specialists replace every control part the water reached with the maker's parts before it runs again.
