Here are the most common gas fireplace problems that might be affecting your home:
If the pilot light on your gas fireplace is out, a simple fix is to change the battery in your remote control. If the remote control is not the issue, then most likely, the gas valve of your gas fireplace is blocked or clogged with dust. This can be solved by cleaning or replacing your gas valve.
If your gas fireplace is making noises, this could mean that one of two things happened: either you need to clean the burner box or that there is another problem with the fireplace, such as a clogged gas valve or an airflow problem. As experienced gas fireplace repair specialists, we can help you diagnose and solve the problem.
The vent is the part in which gases passing through are exhausted from your fireplace. The damper is the door at the end of the vent is used to regulate airflow to your chimney. In order to work properly, they must be kept clean and in good working condition.
This is any surface area of your fireplace that doesn't have flames in it. It includes the sides, top, back, and front. The surface area can crack, warp, or even become completely detached from the fireplace structure.
If your fireplace has a cracking firebox, it may be time to repair or replace your fireplace structure.
Many newer fireplaces employ a thermostat to control temperature and a gas igniter to light the gas logs that are inside of the firebox. If either one isn't working properly, your fireplace will not function as intended.
If you notice intermittent bright flames but can't get any heat from your fireplace, you may have a burner problem. It could be caused by anything from a dirty burner to a bad pilot light assembly.
