"arrived on schedule at 8am. cleaned fireplace and flew, doors. checked chimney and cap for cracks and damage. he found problems with cracks in chimney and advises not using. fully explained choices for repair. very knowledgeable and will use his services in future. he is sending information on stoves for fireplace."
"It's a pretty decent system, I think. They send you the pieces and you install them yourself, which is pretty easy. The only real problem I have is that one sensor is too far away from the panel...or there's some interference, and they haven't been able to fix that. It's an interior door, so it's not the end of the world, just a little annoying. Their customer service is pretty good though. Nice, smart customer service people on the other end, very polite and helpful."
"a very thorough inspection was performed on our fireplace, resulting only in a routine clean which ultimately cost slightly more than the call out charge anyway - our fireplace now works very well."
"Dirty Ed's was prompt, punctual, and delivered the promised service. Their assessment of the needed repairs was accurate and their bid for the custom chimney cap and brick and mortar repairs was VERY fair and competitive. I would use them again for any chimney/fireplace need. They were very responsive by phone and adaptable to scheduling needs. They also inspected the dry vent (which needed NO cleaning) at no extra cost. A first rate operation!"
There isn’t a way to convert electric fireplaces easily or cheaply to gas. The process requires major renovations, as opposed to wood fireplaces, which are often already vented and have space for the gas-burning equipment. To convert an electric fireplace to gas, you’d need to remove your old fireplace and get a completely new install.
You can find replacement stove parts for popular brands at local hardware stores or major retailers. However, you might find the best deal by directly buying online from the manufacturer. While there are some universal parts, the manufacturer can also help you find parts that are specific to your stove’s make and model.
Deciding when to replace your fireplace depends on its condition and your preferences. Replacements may be necessary if your fireplace shows extensive damage, safety issues, or inefficiency. Signs include deteriorating masonry, cracked firebox panels, or a faulty chimney. Aesthetic reasons, such as outdated design, can also drive replacement. Wanting something more sustainable and energy-efficient is another good reason to replace your old fireplace.
Sap, despite its stickiness, is primarily made of water and is responsible for wood being “green” when it’s first cut. Green wood doesn’t burn very easily and will snap and crackle a lot, not ideal for a fire pit or fireplace. That’s why it’s best to let fresh, sap-filled wood season or dry out for at least a season before you start burning.
A chimney liner is a good thing to invest in regardless of if you have issues or not. Chimney liners increase the safety of your fireplace. Without a chimney liner, the gasses that get emitted during burning could eventually damage the masonry and create a major fire hazard in your home.
