A smell of exhaust after cleaning

Smelling exhaust after the glass has been off for cleaning is worth taking seriously. One maker's troubleshooting chart points first to the glass door not being reinstalled properly, which leaves a gap in the seal. The same check applies after any glass cleaning, by anyone.

Switch the unit off and air the room. If a CO alarm sounds, or someone has a headache or feels dizzy, get everyone out and dial 911 from the yard. After that, we reseat the door, check the gasket and run the unit to confirm the seal. Exhaust smell from a fireplace in O'Neil? Call (904) 920-5495.

From cracked glass to a sealed firebox in O'Neil

  1. Rating plate and cause

    We read the model and look at what cracked, clouded or sooted the old glass.

  2. Order the listed part

    The maker's assembly, or the gasket alone where sold, is ordered by part number.

  3. Clear, reset, fit

    Fragments are cleared, logs and embers reset, and the new glass latched with its gasket.

  4. Barrier and test burn

    The barrier goes back on, and the unit runs while we check the seal and the flame.

Ceramic glass and why it is specified

Glass on the front of a sealed gas fireplace sees high temperatures and sudden changes, and makers specify what can take it. On one current model the factory glass is 5 mm ceramic, and its manual allows only the maker's replacement parts.

Ceramic glass barely expands as it heats, which is why it is used where ordinary glass would crack. The replacement matches what the maker specified for the model, whether ceramic or tempered, and we do not mix types. The part list on the estimate shows exactly which glass is going in.

If the glass cracks during a fire

A crack that appears while the fire is burning is unsettling, and the first moves matter. One maker's manual says not to open the door until the fire is out, and to keep the unit out of service until new glass is in.

Turn the fireplace off with its switch or remote, keep people and pets away from the front and let it cool all the way. Pieces that fell into the firebox stay there until the old frame comes off. Then call us with the model from the rating plate, and the replacement is ordered. The model number is what lets the order go in the same day.

Glass fronts on gas inserts

A gas insert set into an old fireplace has a sealed glass front like a built-in unit, and the same rules apply: the maker's assembly, the gasket, the latches and the barrier. What differs is access, since the insert's surround panels may have to come off before the glass fixings can be reached.

The rating plate on an insert can be hidden behind the surround or a lower panel, and we find it before ordering. Where the insert has to be pulled forward to work on it, the estimate says so and includes the time to reset it.

Part numbers, seal and barrier on paper

  1. Maker's glass and frame assembly ordered by part number
  2. Ember material and rock wool checked against the manual
  3. Burner injector and air intake area checked for debris
  4. Crack pattern noted, with model and serial for any maker coverage

Fireplace glass questions from O'Neil

How do you know which glass to order?

From the rating plate, which names the maker, model and serial number. We order the assembly listed for that model.

Why can't a glass shop make the panel?

A cut panel is not part of the fireplace's listing, and the makers' manuals require replacement glass from the maker, with no substitutes. We fit only the listed part.
