A repair estimate part by part

Our repair estimate names the failed part, how we tested it, its maker's number, its price and when it is expected. Labor is listed with it, and any electrician work on the outlet or circuit is shown separately. If two parts have failed together, we explain whether one caused the other.

If more than one part has failed, each has its own line, so you can see the total building up. When the total approaches the cost of a new unit, we say so. Want a written repair estimate for your electric fireplace in Lake Asbury? Call (904) 920-5495; the diagnostic visit is free.

What wears out electric fireplaces in Lake Asbury

Salt does not reach an indoor electric unit in Lake Asbury, well inland. Dust, heat cycles and wear on the fan and flame motor are what bring units in for repair.

Those show up in testing, part by part.

Fan motors, bearings and noise

The fan moves room air across the element and back out into the room. As its bearings wear, it slows, grinds or whines, and a slower fan lets the element run hotter, which can trip the cutoff.

We spin the fan by hand with the power off to feel for roughness, then run it to listen. Dust on the blades is cleaned off, since it throws them out of balance. A worn motor is replaced as a unit with the maker's part. The fan is then run long enough to confirm the noise has gone and the airflow is back. A fan that starts slowly on a cold day and then speeds up is also a sign of wear.

Comparing repair with replacement

Repairing stays the sensible choice until the part list or the total says otherwise. One failed part that is still made is usually worth replacing. When several parts have failed, or the board and heater have both gone, the repair total can approach the price of a new unit.

We put both side by side in writing. The repair lists each part and its labor. The replacement notes what a new unit would involve, including whether the existing bracket, opening or firebox fits a current model. The decision is yours, with both totals on one page. Where a replacement is chosen, the old unit's bracket or opening is checked for reuse.

Bringing a unit back after an outage

After a power outage, some electric fireplaces come back on their own and some need help. The main switch may need cycling, the remote may need re-pairing and the thermostat settings may have reset.

The manual gives the steps for your model, and we work through them first. If the unit still does not respond, we test the internal fuse and the board. A unit that fails after an outage is not always damaged, and checking the simple steps first can save a part. We note the reset steps for your model on the invoice for next time.

Before a part is ordered

Can you get parts for an older model?

Usually, through the maker or its parts distributors, ordered by model and serial number. A discontinued part is flagged to you before any charge.

Is it worth fixing, or should I buy a new one?

One failed part that is still made is usually worth replacing. If several parts have failed or parts are gone, we compare the repair with a new unit in writing so you can decide.
