Q: Is shiplap safe for a gas fireplace?

• <div><p>Shiplap can be safe for a gas fireplace, but you should consult with a fireplace installation pro before proceeding. You need to make sure your project meets building and safety codes since shiplap is made from flammable wood. You may need to install another non-combustible material, like stone or brick, around the fireplace for a certain amount of space before you can add shiplap. </p></div>

Q: How do I know if I need to repair my gas fireplace?

• <div><p>There are a few things you can keep an eye out for that indicate you may need to call in a gas fireplace repair tech:</p><ul><li><p>Your fireplace pilot light won&rsquo;t stay on.</p></li><li><p>You notice the smell of rotten eggs.</p></li><li><p>You hear hissing coming from the gas fireplace.</p></li><li><p>You notice a soot build-up.</p></li><li><p>The fire goes out unexpectedly.</p></li></ul><p>If you notice a rotten egg smell or hear hissing, you could have a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/signs-of-gas-leak.htm">gas leak</a>, which is extremely dangerous. Call the fire department and your gas company first to shut off the gas and air out your home before calling for a repair.</p></div>

Q: Do all wood-burning fireplaces have an ash pit?

• <div><p>Some homes with wood-burning fireplaces don't have ash pits due to design choices, construction practices, or the age of the house. Many older abodes don't have them because ash pits weren't a standard feature when they were built. Additionally, in smaller homes or homes with less frequent fireplace use, builders might have opted to forgo an ash pit to reduce costs or simplify maintenance. </p></div>

Q: What is the best way to clean brick?

• <div><p>For most brick cleaning jobs, including fireplace bricks, use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner. A simple solution of equal parts water and vinegar, or a few drops of dish soap in a bowl of water, can effectively remove grime. For tougher stains, you can use a dedicated masonry or fireplace cleaner. It is crucial to wet the bricks thoroughly with water before applying any cleaning solution to prevent the brick from absorbing it, and to rinse the surface completely afterward. Harsher cleaners containing bleach or ammonia should only be used as a last resort, and they should never be mixed together.</p></div>

Q: What is the usual duration for fixing a gas pre-fabricated fireplace unit?

• <div><p>Repairs typically take 1-3 hours, depending on the issue's complexity.</p></div>

"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."
