Every household appliance needs regular maintenance and your gas fireplace is no exception. Burn safely and efficiently by performing routine gas fireplace annual maintenance.
Have a licensed gas appliance specialist inspect the lines and connections annually. This will catch problems before they become a danger to your family.
Clean off your log set with a damp cloth and wipe the glass doors clean with a specialized fireplace glass cleaner. This will eliminate flammable dust and give you a clear view of the flames.
Check for any blockages – inside and out. Watch for critters, birds and spiders that may have made a home in these cozy spots.
Lastly, test your carbon monoxide detectors and replace the batteries if needed.
Fireplace Village provides gas fireplace maintenance service in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. Contact Fireplace Village to schedule an appointment to have your gas fireplace or gas appliance serviced.
Keep your family safe by taking the time for gas fireplace annual maintenance.

Gas fireplaces are known for their convenience and ease of use. Whether you’ve just installed a new gas fireplace or are entering the heating season again, learning how to turn on a gas fireplace is a simple lesson.
If your gas fireplace is an insert model, find and open your flue. Make sure your pilot light is lit. If not, relight it with a long match and switch the gas knob to ON. This should get the flames up.
For a direct-vent or vent-free model, check the pilot light (it may not be out in the open, so have a good look for it). Once lit, most models will begin to operate with a flick of a wall switch.

We saw good question (and answer) about gas fireplaces in the Boston Globe yesterday:
Q. I had a gas fireplace installed in my 2007 house. It is fueled by propane because there is no gas on the street. The pilot light has gone off repeatedly. A faulty part was replaced without much success. Someone thought there was not enough pressure from the propane, and increased the pressure. Still with no success. In December the pilot went out again and it cost me $95 to turn it on, and failed again in a few hours. Now what?
RIPPING MAD
A. Good question. Boosting pressure? Maybe. This might work: Replace the pilot with electronic ignition. Finally, was the unit designed for propane? Check with the installer. And since professionals have been dealing with this for months without success, perhaps a whole new unit is in order. Or replace the unit with a pellet stove, one that has a power vent through the wall and it doesn’t need a pilot.
