Relighting after the gas has been off
When the gas supply is shut off and restored, for work on the meter or after a storm, the pilot of a vent-free unit goes out. The manual's lighting procedure, including the wait it sets before relighting, applies every time. Air in a newly reopened gas line can take a few tries to clear at the pilot.
If the pilot will not relight or stay lit afterward in Bayard, air in the line or dust stirred up at the sensor can be the cause, and we clear them as the manual describes.
Bayard is in Duval County. The coastline lies beyond Bayard.

Carbon monoxide alarms in Bayard homes
Florida's carbon monoxide alarm law applies across the state, inland Bayard included, for homes built since July 1, 2008 with a fossil-fuel appliance or a fireplace. An alarm near the bedrooms is a sensible backup in any home with a vent-free unit.
Its presence is noted on the service ticket.

Carbon monoxide alarms and vent-free units
Florida Statutes section 553.885 requires carbon monoxide alarms, placed within ten feet of any room people sleep in, in homes built from July 1, 2008 onward that contain a fossil-fuel appliance, a fireplace or an attached garage. In any house with a vent-free unit, an alarm near the bedrooms is a sensible layer of protection.
We check whether an alarm is present and note it on the ticket. The alarm is not a substitute for a clean sensor pilot and a correctly sized unit; it is the backup to them. CO alarms wear out, and the replace-by date on the alarm says when.
Matching parts to the gas on the plate
Pilots, burners and valves are made for natural gas or for propane, and the wrong one burns wrong. The gas a unit was built to burn is printed on its rating plate, and a conversion is allowed only with the maker's kit where the manual permits it.
We check which gas actually reaches the valve before ordering any gas-carrying part, so what arrives matches your supply. A conversion, where it is allowed, is priced as its own line with the kit named. A unit that was converted in the past is checked to confirm the conversion matches the gas now supplied.
Checking gas pressure at the unit
Correct burning depends on the pressures printed on the rating plate. With a manometer on the valve's test ports, we read the inlet pressure and the manifold pressure and compare them with the plate.
Low inlet pressure points upstream, to the supply or the regulator, which is the gas utility's or a gas contractor's side. Pressure problems at the valve are ours to correct with the maker's parts. The readings are written on the ticket, so a later change in the supply can be spotted.
What we check on a vent-free unit in Bayard
- Burner ports and air inlet cleaned with the gas off
- Logs set to the maker's diagram, damaged logs replaced
- Every opened gas joint leak checked with solution or instrument
- Igniter, remote, receiver and thermostat tested and repaired
Before the unit is lit again
Why does my vent-free fireplace keep shutting off?
The oxygen depletion sensor may be tripping on lint or dust at the pilot, or the room may not hold enough air for the unit's input. We clean the pilot, measure the room and find out which it is.
Do you work on the gas line to the unit?
No. We service the appliance from its shutoff valve in. Supply piping and new gas lines belong to a gas contractor or the gas utility, and we name them when they are needed.
