After water reaches the controls
Gas fireplace manuals are direct about water. A unit whose control system or gas valve has been under water is not to be used until a service technician has inspected it and replaced every control part and gas control that was wet. Drying them out and relighting is not an option they allow, because corrosion inside a valve does not show from outside. After flooding at the Green Cove Springs house, we inspect, list each part that was below the water line, and replace them from the maker's parts list before the unit runs again. The diagnosis visit in Green Cove Springs is free, and we bring the likely parts; call (904) 920-5495.
The direct distance from Jacksonville to Green Cove Springs is about 20 miles. Green Cove Springs is part of Clay County.

How It Works
How our gas fireplace pros find the fault in Green Cove Springs
-
Rating plate read, fault watched
The plate gives the maker, the model and the gas, and we watch the unit try to do what you called about.
-
Meter and manometer readings
Thermocouple, thermopile or flame rod output and the gas pressures are checked against the maker's chart.
-
Listed part fitted, leak checked
The failed part is replaced from the maker's list, and every connection opened gets a leak-detection solution.
-
Burner, logs and vent set right
Ports are cleaned, the logs go back on the diagram and the vent is checked before we light it with you.
Local Conditions
Remote controls that stop working
Many gas fireplaces run from a receiver near the valve, with its own batteries and a switch. Dead batteries or lost pairing look like a failed fireplace.
We test the receiver and handset on your Green Cove Springs unit before any control part is replaced.

A blocked pilot orifice
The pilot orifice is a tiny drilled opening, and a spider web, a speck of dust or a bit of scale is enough to shrink the flame or stop it. A weak pilot then fails to heat the thermocouple or thermopile fully, and the symptoms look like a bad sensor.
Before any sensor is replaced, we check the flame and, where the pilot design allows, clear the orifice and the air opening around it. Where the maker supplies the pilot as a single assembly with its sensors, the whole assembly is replaced as one part rather than rebuilt. The flame is checked again afterward.
The air shutter and the flame
Some burners have an air shutter near the orifice that sets how much primary air mixes with the gas before it burns. Too little air gives tall, dark, sooty flames; too much can make the flame short and noisy or lift it off the burner. The manual describes what the flame should look like at full rate after the unit has run for a while, and some decorative units are meant to show yellow flames.
We adjust the shutter only after the logs, embers and ports are right, and only within the range the manual allows. An adjustment outside that range is not made.
Leaks inside a direct-vent run
Pipe inside a pipe is how a direct-vent run is built, with exhaust in the middle and intake air around it. If a joint in the inner pipe separates, exhaust leaks into the intake and the burner starts breathing its own combustion products, which can make the flame and the pilot go out while the unit is running. The maker's troubleshooting chart lists an inner pipe leak for exactly that symptom, along with a horizontal run pitched the wrong way.
We check the joints we can reach, the pitch of horizontal sections, and the collar connections at the unit. Joints hidden in walls are checked where the manual gives access.

FAQ
Before a part is ordered
Do you service propane gas fireplaces?
Yes. Propane units use the same controls with different orifices and pressures, and we confirm the gas at the rating plate first. The tank and supply piping are the propane supplier's.
Will I pay anything for the written estimate?
No. The estimate is free and in writing, priced upfront with no hidden fees. The 10% off your first service is shown on it.
