The safety screen in front of the glass
Is there a mesh barrier over the glass on your gas fireplace? Glass on a gas unit gets very hot, and newer units, built after the 2015 revisions to their safety standards, ship with a barrier that's meant to stay in place.
On a service, the barrier gets checked for fit and damage, and for older units without one, you'll hear whether the maker offers a barrier kit. It's a simple way to keep small children and pets from touching hot glass. The part and fitting are priced. Speak with our specialists about a safety screen for your fireplace in Tioga by dialing (352) 675-6366.
Tioga falls in the Alachua County part of our service area. Neither the Gulf nor Atlantic coast reaches Tioga.

Local Conditions
Renovation dust and a gas fireplace
Had work done in the room with the fireplace in your home in Tioga? Drywall and sanding dust settle in the burner and the control compartment and can clog the small openings. Our specialists clean the unit thoroughly after a renovation and check the flame and pilot before you use it again. A quick pre-use clean saves a service call later.

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.
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.
Spill switches on chimney-vented units
Units that vent through a chimney, rather than a sealed direct vent, use a draft hood, and many have a spill switch mounted near it. If exhaust spills out of the draft hood instead of rising up the vent, the switch heats up and shuts the gas valve.
Some spill switches reset on their own when they cool; others need a manual reset. A unit that keeps shutting off is telling you the vent isn't drawing properly.
The cause might be a blocked vent or a house pulling air down it, and that's what gets fixed. Bypassing the switch isn't an option.
