The Importance of Regular Fireplace Maintenance
You should have your gas or electric fireplace serviced every one to two years. Failure to do so could lead to serious issues jeopardizing your comfort and safety. For example, carbon can build up on the glass, the burners and inside the vents, and extended wear and tear can lead to hazardous natural gas and carbon monoxide leaks.
Furthermore, without regular maintenance, your gas or electric fireplace can become inefficient, wasting fuel and increasing your energy bills. In the worst cases, it may stop working altogether.
Common Problems for Gas and Electric Fireplaces
Like any appliance in your home, gas and electric fireplaces eventually require repairs. Here are some of the most common issues:
Difficulty in lighting the pilot light or igniting the fireplace
Problems with the gas valve can lead to irregular gas flow and inadequate heating
Gas leaks
Faulty thermocouple causing inconsistent flames
Malfunctioning electric heating elements resulting in inadequate or uneven heating
Failing remote controls or control panels

“Don came over to look at my 20 year old furnace and we both decided that it was a good time to have it replaced as winter was approaching. We went with a Carrier which we previously had and has served us well over the years. Don was able to get me a very generous discount from Carrier as the part that the old furnace needed was heavily backordered. A few days later Ashley came with his partner and had it installed in about 4 hours and they were very professional and very nice people. Very happy with the whole process!!”
Very Happy with the Whole Process!!

We are doing our best to support local businesses and they make it easy to choose them as our preferred store and dealer!”
