Three things to have ready on the phone

Three things on the phone make the repair visit faster. First, what happens: no pilot, a pilot that goes out, clicking, a burner that will not come on, a flame that looks wrong, or a shutdown after running. Second, whether the unit burns natural gas or propane, and whether it has a remote, a wall switch or a knob only. Third, the maker and model from the rating plate; look behind the lower grille or for a tag near the controls. With that, we bring the likely parts to Lake Asbury on the first trip. If there is any gas smell, say so first, because that changes the order of things.

Lake Asbury is in Clay County. In the 2020 Census, Lake Asbury counted 11,036 residents.

What's Included

Pilot, ignition, burner and vent

  • Pilot flame checked against the manual's drawing
  • Pilot orifice cleared of webs and scale
  • Vent termination checked outside for blockage
  • Failed part on your Lake Asbury unit named with its reading

How It Works

How gas fireplace repair runs

  1. 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.

  2. Meter and manometer readings

    Thermocouple, thermopile or flame rod output and the gas pressures are checked against the maker's chart.

  3. Listed part fitted, leak checked

    The failed part is replaced from the maker's list, and every connection opened gets a leak-detection solution.

  4. 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

After a long idle season in Lake Asbury

A gas fireplace that has sat unused for months can have spider webs in the pilot tube and dust on the burner ports. The pilot then burns weak or will not light.

Clearing the pilot and the air openings is often the whole repair on units in Lake Asbury.

The spark electrode and its cable

The spark that lights a pilot jumps a small gap between an electrode and a grounded point, and the gap is set by the maker. Too wide, and the spark weakens or jumps somewhere else. A cracked ceramic around the electrode lets the spark leak to the metal body, which shows as clicking with no light. The ignition cable runs close to hot parts, and a cable that has melted or buckled from heat is replaced and shielded where the manual says.

The gap, the ceramic and the cable all get checked before the module is blamed. Each of those has its own part number.

A spill switch doing its job

A natural vent gas fireplace can carry a spill switch, a heat-sensing switch near the draft hood. If exhaust spills back into the room instead of rising up the vent, the heat trips the switch and the valve shuts, and on some units the switch has to be reset by hand.

A trip is a message about the vent: a blockage, a cold vent that has not started to draw, a vent that is too short or too long, or a house pulling air through it. We find that cause and fix it. The switch is tested and replaced if faulty, and it is not bypassed.

Ticks and pings from a warming firebox

Gas fireplaces made of steel expand as they heat and contract as they cool, and the manuals describe some ticking and pinging during those cycles as normal. What is not normal is a new noise: a loud bang at ignition, a roaring or whistling flame, or a rattle that tracks the blower. A delayed ignition bang points to a pilot that lights the burner late, and a roaring flame points to pressure or air.

On service we listen through a full cycle and note which sounds are the steel and which are a fault. Anything that is a fault is written up with what we heard and when.

Free Inspection

Measured in Lake Asbury before a part is replaced

  1. Thermocouple or thermopile output read under load and compared with the chart

  3. Spill switch tested on natural vent units, and not bypassed
  4. Gas supply or wiring faults named for the trade that fixes them

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.

Can my gas fireplace be used with cracked glass?

No. The manuals do not allow a sealed unit to run with cracked, broken or missing glass, because the glass is part of the seal that keeps exhaust out of the room. Leave it off until the maker's glass assembly is fitted.
