Keeping pets and children back

Logs stay hot well after the flames are out, and one maker asks for an adult to be around whenever the set burns. A set left running in an empty room, or overnight, is exactly what the manuals warn against.

A screen in front and a set that is turned off when the room is empty go a long way, and we show you the controls so shutting it off is quick. Small children or pets in a home getting gas logs in Brooklyn? Plan it with us at (904) 920-5495.

Brooklyn is part of Duval County. Brooklyn is an inland community.

How gas log installation runs

Measure firebox and room
Firebox, chimney height and, for vent-free sets, the room are checked against the manual.
Clean and clamp
Soot and debris come out of the fireplace, and vented sets get their permanent damper clamp.
Connect and test
Once gas reaches the valve, the set is connected, leak tested and its pressure read.
Place logs and light
Logs and embers go where the manual shows, and we light the set with you.

Soot on inland gas logs

Sooty logs in Brooklyn point to placement, the burner or air, not the weather.

Placement is corrected first, then the burner and air.

The room-size rule for vent-free logs

Room volume sets the ceiling on vent-free input. Under 621.5, all the unvented appliances in a space together may not exceed 20 Btu an hour per cubic foot, so a 30,000 Btu an hour set needs 1,500 cubic feet or more.

Rooms joined by doorless openings can count together, and one maker's manual includes a worksheet for exactly that. We measure length, width and ceiling height, add connected spaces where they qualify, and compare the total with the set's input before recommending vent-free. A room that falls short gets a smaller set or a vented one.

Fresh air in a tightly built house

Air leaking around doors and windows can supply a vent-free set in an older house, but not in a tight one. One maker says a home with a continuous vapor retarder, weather stripping on doors and windows, and sealed joints around frames and sole plates must have additional fresh air from outdoors.

Its manual describes ways to bring that air in from outside or from adjoining rooms. We ask about the house's construction and recent upgrades before recommending a vent-free set, since a tight house changes the answer. A worksheet in the manual turns that into numbers.

The damper clamp on a vented set

A vented log set cannot run against a closed damper. One maker supplies a damper clamp that must be permanently installed, to keep a minimum opening and prevent the damper from closing fully, and says the damper must be fully open whenever the set is burning.

Where the clamp does not fit or fails to hold, the same maker calls for a permanent stop, removing the damper blade, or cutting the damper to leave the minimum opening. We fit the clamp as part of the install and show you why it is there. A handle painted open is not a substitute for the clamp.

Damper clamp fitted permanently and the opening measured

Before a log set goes in

Can I burn wood with the gas logs in place?

No. The logs and burner are not built for a wood fire, and one vent-free maker bans solid fuel in a fireplace with its set installed.

Is the gas log inspection free?

Yes. The measuring visit and the written estimate are free, and that price holds. Book the set within 72 hours of the measuring visit and 10% comes off the installation.
