Same-day repair visits, when they are open
Asking for same-day service makes sense when a gas fireplace will not light, and it is available on days the schedule has a gap. It depends on the day's schedule. When you call from Nocatee, tell us whether there is any gas smell, which changes the order of things, and what the unit is doing.
If the visit is the same day, the written estimate is too. Parts that have to be ordered from the maker can take longer, and the estimate gives their expected date and whether the unit is safe to use in the meantime. A gas fireplace specialist will look at your Nocatee unit free of charge; call (904) 920-5495.

Plate, readings, part, test burn
-
Rating plate and symptom
We read the maker, model and gas type, then watch the unit try to do what you called about.
-
Readings against the chart
Thermocouple, thermopile or flame rod output and the gas pressures are measured and compared with the manual.
-
Failed part replaced
The part that tested bad is replaced with the maker's listed part, and the burner and logs are set right.
-
Test burn and vent check
The unit runs through a full cycle, and the vent termination outside is checked before we go.
After storms in Nocatee
During hurricane season, storms near the coast can pack debris against a wall termination or bend its guard.
We check the termination on your Nocatee house, clear it and replace any damaged part before the unit is run.

A yearly gas fireplace service is a service too, and it comes 10% off.
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.
Pressure at the test ports
A fireplace gas valve carries two small test ports, one on the inlet side and one on the outlet or manifold side. A manometer on each tells whether gas is arriving at the pressure the rating plate calls for and leaving at the pressure the burner needs. Low inlet pressure is a supply problem outside the appliance. Correct inlet with low manifold pressure points into the valve or its regulator. Readings are taken with the burner lit, since a supply that looks fine at rest can sag under load, and each port is resealed and leak-checked after.
The blower's thermal switch
Blowers on gas fireplaces can be turned on by a thermal switch, a small disc that closes once the firebox reaches a set temperature and opens again after the unit cools. So a blower waits several minutes to start and runs for a while after shutdown.
A switch that no longer closes leaves the blower dead, and one that sticks closed leaves it running. We check the switch and the speed control, clean the wheel and housing, and confirm the blower has power at its outlet. A missing outlet is an electrician's job. The switch sits against the firebox, where the manual places it.
Readings, parts and the vent check
- Pilot assembly cleaned, adjusted or replaced as one listed part
- Blower cleaned, and its thermal switch and speed control tested
- Remote receiver and wall switch circuit tested at the valve
- Spill switch tested on natural vent units, and not bypassed
Gas fireplace questions from Nocatee
What happens if the problem is the gas line?
The gas piping that feeds the appliance shutoff valve is run and repaired by a gas contractor, your gas utility or the propane supplier. We tell you what we measured, name who to call, and finish the fireplace repair once the supply is right.
Does a service visit include cleaning the glass?
Yes, after the burner, logs and embers are set right. Soot on the glass comes from the flame, so the flame is corrected first.
