Fireplace Service & Maintenance

 

Even clean-burning gas fireplaces need regular cleaning and inspection.

 

Yearly servicing and cleaning by professional service tech is recommended for continued safe operation and years of enjoyment of your fireplace. And according to industry resources, sales of gas fireplaces far out-paces those of traditional wood-burning fireplaces. Homeowners appear to appreciate a fireplace that runs on natural gas and burns cleaner making it a better choice and healthier for the environment.

 

A gas fireplace is a pricey investment, so be sure to protect your investment by having your gas fireplace serviced regularly. Though they burn cleanly, with no smoke, cinders or wood ash left behind and no sooty chimneys to clean out, gas fireplaces still need regular maintenance and service to run safely and extend their lifespan.

 

Cleaning your gas fireplace can be a daunting DIY task, and should never be taken on by those unfamiliar or uncomfortable working around natural gas. If you’re hesitant to work with a natural gas line, have a fireplace professional service like Sharp Edge Heating & Ventilation do a proper job for you.

 

When to Get a Fireplace Service

 

How often you get a gas fireplace service check depends on how often you use the fireplace.

 

If you like a roaring fire from autumn all the way through spring, you should contact Sharp Edge Heating & Ventilation to schedule services at least once a year, ideally early in the summer. If you only use your gas fireplace occasionally, you can probably get by with a fireplace service check at minimum every two years.
