Selling a house with gas logs

Buyers' inspectors look at gas logs for a damper clamp, a rating plate, logs in their places and a clean flame. A set with a missing clamp or sooty logs ends up in the report. A rating plate with its tag still attached also answers an inspector's first question.

The set gets checked, a missing clamp gets fitted and the logs are reset, and the work is written up for the sale paperwork. Listing a house in Fernandina Beach with gas logs in the fireplace? Book a free check at (904) 920-5495.

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.

The chimney top above coastal gas logs

A vented set in Fernandina Beach depends on the flue drawing well, and a cap or top rusted by salt air can change that.

We look at the top of the chimney before installing the set.

Vented or vent-free logs, the install is discounted either way.

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.

A level floor under the burner

Burners are built to sit flat. One maker's manual says the fireplace floor must be level and smooth, since a burner pan that rocks or tilts changes how gas spreads through it and how the flames rise around the logs.

Old fireboxes can have sunken bricks or a rough ash-worn floor. We check the floor with a level before setting the burner, shim or correct it where the manual allows, and write up firebox floor repair separately where the floor itself needs work. The burner is then centered and secured as the manual shows. A shim is used only where the manual allows one.

Gas pressure the set needs

Log sets have a pressure range at their inlet. One maker's vented burner needs at least 5 inches of water column on natural gas and 11 on propane for input adjustment, with maximums of 10.5 and 13, and says not to install it where the minimum is not available.

The same manual requires propane to be regulated and rules out connecting to an unregulated tank or a portable cylinder. We read the inlet pressure with the set running, and with other gas appliances in the house running too, and record the readings on the ticket.

Before a log set goes in

Can gas logs go into any fireplace in Fernandina Beach?

No. Vented logs need a sound fireplace and a chimney that draws, while vent-free logs need a big enough room where the rules allow them. Both are checked on a free visit.

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.
