Yellow flames licking the logs
Some yellow at the flame tips of a vent-free set can be normal, but flames that wrap around and touch the logs are not. Flame contact cools the flame and leaves soot, and one manual names it directly as the cause of sooting. Flames that change shape when a fan or the air handler starts are a clue that drafts are involved.
On a vent-free unit in Tallulah-North Shore, we check the log positions against the manual's photos, clean the burner ports and air openings, and set the ember material where the maker puts it. The flame is watched through a full cycle before we sign it off.
Tallulah-North Shore lies inland. Tallulah-North Shore lies on the Trout River.

Carbon monoxide alarms in Tallulah-North Shore homes
Florida's carbon monoxide alarm law applies across the state, inland Tallulah-North Shore included, for homes built since July 1, 2008 with a fossil-fuel appliance or a fireplace. An alarm near the bedrooms is a sensible backup in any home with a vent-free unit.
Its presence is noted on the service ticket.

Cleaning, log placement or a new sensor, each is discounted.
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.
Checking gas pressure at the unit
Correct burning depends on the pressures printed on the rating plate. With a manometer on the valve's test ports, we read the inlet pressure and the manifold pressure and compare them with the plate.
Low inlet pressure points upstream, to the supply or the regulator, which is the gas utility's or a gas contractor's side. Pressure problems at the valve are ours to correct with the maker's parts. The readings are written on the ticket, so a later change in the supply can be spotted.
Damper open or closed
In a masonry fireplace, the damper may stay closed under a vent-free set only where the manual allows it, for example when the surroundings are noncombustible and the mantel clearances are met. Where those conditions are not met, the manual has the damper open and the set runs vented.
The fireplace is checked against those conditions, and the damper is fixed in the position the manual requires. The reason is written on the ticket, so nobody changes it later without knowing why. A damper clamp or stop keeps the damper where the manual requires, so it cannot be moved by accident.

Before the unit is lit again
Do you work on the gas line to the unit?
No. We service the appliance from its shutoff valve in. Supply piping and new gas lines belong to a gas contractor or the gas utility, and we name them when they are needed.
