A spark screen that no longer closes

The mesh curtain across a prefab opening runs on a rod and pulls closed from the sides. Torn mesh, a bent rod or a missing pull leaves gaps at the edges where sparks get out. On these units the screen is a listed part like any other.

We replace the screen or its hardware on fireplaces in San Marco with the maker's parts and check that it meets the opening without gaps. A small job with a written price, and it goes near the top of the list because it protects the floor.

San Marco is one of the named neighborhoods of Jacksonville. San Marco is in Duval County.

A chase top that ages inland in San Marco

San Marco is inland, and a galvanized chase top there is not fighting salt air. It still ages: paint fails, seams open and a flat top holds water, and that water reaches the firebox.

For a prefab fireplace in San Marco, the top is checked before the panels, and any chase top work is its own line.

Fans on a circulating fireplace

A fan kit on a circulating fireplace is a listed accessory, sized and placed by the maker. Bearings wear and get noisy, dust builds on the wheel, and the heat switch that turns the fan on can fail. The kit's instructions give the parts and the wiring.

We clean or replace fan parts with the maker's kit for your model. If the fan needs a new outlet or circuit, that is an electrician's work, and the estimate names it that way rather than folding it into ours. A fan that squeals after cleaning gets a new motor, not oil.

Doors that belong to the listing

R1004.5 keeps gasketed doors off factory-built fireplaces unless the fireplace is listed for them. Doors change how air reaches the fire and how heat builds in the box, so makers test their own door kits with the unit. A universal door bolted to the opening is not part of that test.

Where the maker offers a listed door for your model, we can order and fit it. Where it does not, the answer is a screen, and we say so on the estimate rather than fitting a door that takes the unit outside its listing.

Tracing parts for a renamed brand

Factory-built fireplace lines move between companies. A unit sold under one name may be supported today by the company that bought that line, with parts cross-referenced from old numbers to new ones. Dealers and parts distributors keep those cross-references.

We use the model and series from the label to trace the current parts source for your unit, and write the old and new part numbers side by side on the estimate. If the trail ends with no listed part, that is written down too, with what it means for the fireplace.

What we check on a prefab fireplace in San Marco

Refractory panels ordered by the maker's part number
Firebox floor and back checked for rust with the grate out
Termination cap replaced with a model listed for the chimney
Unlisted doors, shrouds or add-ons identified as separate items

Before a part is ordered

Could a mason line my metal fireplace with firebrick?

Not without taking it out of its listing. Replacement panels are the ones the maker lists for your model, ordered by number.

When can the fireplace be lit after new panels go in?

The manual for your model sets it. One maker asks for a day of curing and small fires for the first few uses, and we write your model's schedule on the ticket.
