Years since the last service
Vent-free manuals ask for a check before the unit is first used each season and a service every year, plus extra cleaning in homes where lint piles up. Units that go years without it collect dust at the sensor pilot, the burner ports and the air openings. Service records also help the next technician see what has already been replaced.
A service on your unit in Mayport covers the pilot, the burner, the logs, the controls and a check of the room against the rating plate. Everything we find goes on the ticket, and any part is priced before it is fitted.
Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park is in Mayport. Mayport is a neighborhood inside Jacksonville city limits.

Setting logs to the manual
Every vent-free log set comes with a placement diagram or photos, and the logs belong exactly where they show. A log moved an inch can sit in the flame path, and flame touching a log cools the flame and leaves soot.
After any cleaning, we set each log to the diagram and check the flame from the front and the sides. If a log is cracked or missing, it is replaced with the maker's log for that model, not a similar one. Logs are handled gently, since ceramic fiber logs chip and crack when dropped.
Tracking down soot
Soot from a vent-free unit has a short list of causes: logs out of place, flame touching the logs, dirty burner ports, drafts pushing the flame from fans, windows or return grilles, and residue from candles or other products used in the room. Makers list the same ones.
We check each one rather than guessing. The unit stays off while soot appears, as the manuals direct, and the fix addresses the cause before the walls are cleaned. Soot marks on the ceiling or the wall above the unit are cleaned only after the cause is fixed, or they return.
Carbon monoxide alarms and vent-free units
Florida Statutes section 553.885 requires carbon monoxide alarms, placed within ten feet of any room people sleep in, in homes built from July 1, 2008 onward that contain a fossil-fuel appliance, a fireplace or an attached garage. In any house with a vent-free unit, an alarm near the bedrooms is a sensible layer of protection.
We check whether an alarm is present and note it on the ticket. The alarm is not a substitute for a clean sensor pilot and a correctly sized unit; it is the backup to them. CO alarms wear out, and the replace-by date on the alarm says when.
Plate, room, pilot and logs, in writing

Vent-free fireplace questions from Mayport
Why does my vent-free fireplace keep shutting off?
The oxygen depletion sensor may be tripping on lint or dust at the pilot, or the room may not hold enough air for the unit's input. We clean the pilot, measure the room and find out which it is.
