A pilot that won't stay lit

Pilot lights, then quits the moment the knob is released? That points to the thermocouple or thermopile, the small sensors sitting in the pilot flame that tell the gas valve it's safe to stay open. When they're worn, sooty or bent out of the flame, the valve shuts off by design.

Our pros meter-test the sensors at the valve, following the troubleshooting chart in your unit's manual, and check that the pilot flame wraps them properly. You pay only for the part that actually failed. Reserve a pilot repair for your gas fireplace in Orange Heights at (352) 675-6366.

Glass haze from occasional use

If glass on a gas fireplace in Orange Heights becomes hazy, follow the model's cleaning instructions only once the appliance is off and cool. Persistent clouding, cracks or damaged seals need assessment before further use. Our pros discuss whether cleaning or an approved replacement is appropriate after checking the actual condition.

Electronic ignition faults

Plenty of newer gas fireplaces light with a spark instead of a standing pilot. A module sends a spark across a gap to light the pilot or burner, and a flame sensor confirms the flame. If the sensor doesn't see it, the module locks out after a few tries.

The maker's troubleshooting flow chart walks through the spark gap, the ceramic insulator, the ignition cable and the flame sensor, which should sit in a steady blue flame.

Following that chart, our pros fix what's wrong and reset the module the way the manual describes. Batteries in any backup pack are checked too.

Logs placed to the diagram

The ceramic logs in a gas fireplace aren't decoration placed at random. Every maker prints a layout showing where each log sits, because the logs shape the flame and one in the wrong spot can block it and cause soot.

Makers also warn against burning with a cracked or broken log, and against cleaning logs with any cleaning fluid. Our pros set logs back to the layout, swap broken ones for the maker's logs, and check the flame afterwards.

They'll show you where the layout is kept, so cleaning doesn't move things out of place again. Ember material is placed the way the maker shows.

Why the glass has to seal

On a sealed gas fireplace, the glass front closes off the combustion chamber as well as showing the flame. Maker manuals warn that the glass must be properly seated and sealed, or combustion products can leak into the room, and that the unit mustn't run with the glass removed, cracked or broken.

Latches, frame and the gasket that seals the glass to the firebox all get checked. A flattened or torn gasket is replaced with the maker's part, and cracked glass is replaced before the unit runs again.

It's one of the checks on every service visit. A clean, tight seal also keeps the glass clearer.

FAQs

When the pilot, igniter or glass acts up

Smell gas near the fireplace?

Leave the switches and controls alone. Get everyone out, then phone 911 or your gas company once you're outside. Once they've made it safe, our specialists can inspect and repair the unit.

Is the ticking noise normal?

Steel fireplaces tick and pop as they heat and cool, and makers call that normal. A new rattle, grinding or loud bang on lighting isn't, and our specialists can check it.
