After water reaches the controls

Gas fireplace manuals are direct about water. A unit whose control system or gas valve has been under water is not to be used until a service technician has inspected it and replaced every control part and gas control that was wet. Drying them out and relighting is not an option they allow, because corrosion inside a valve does not show from outside. After flooding at the St. Nicholas house, we inspect, list each part that was below the water line, and replace them from the maker's parts list before the unit runs again. The diagnosis visit in St. Nicholas is free, and we bring the likely parts; call (904) 920-5495.

About 3 miles, as the crow flies, separate St. Nicholas from Jacksonville. St. Nicholas is a neighborhood within the City of Jacksonville.

How It Works

Plate, readings, part, test burn

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.
Meter and manometer readings
Thermocouple, thermopile or flame rod output and the gas pressures are checked against the maker's chart.
Listed part fitted, leak checked
The failed part is replaced from the maker's list, and every connection opened gets a leak-detection solution.
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

Propane fireplaces in St. Nicholas

Propane units use the same controls as natural gas units with different orifices and pressures. The rating plate names the gas, and the parts must match it.

For propane fireplaces in St. Nicholas, the tank and the supply piping are the propane supplier's, and we say when the fault is theirs.

The screen in front of hot glass

The glass front of a gas fireplace gets hot enough to burn skin. Under the 2015 revisions of ANSI Z21.88 and Z21.50, units whose glass runs above a set temperature ship with a barrier, such as a mesh screen, in front of the glass. The manuals say the barrier shall be installed.

On older units built before that change, a barrier may be available from the maker as an accessory. We check that the screen is present, fastened as designed and undamaged, and replace a missing or bent one with the maker's part. Burns to children are the reason the rule exists.

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.

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.

FAQ

Gas fireplace questions from St. Nicholas

Can you fix a gas fireplace in St. Nicholas the same day?

Whenever an open slot allows, same-day service is available. A repair can be finished on the first visit when the part is on the truck, and parts that have to be ordered are listed on the estimate with their expected date.

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.
