GAS, PROPANE, WOOD AND ELECTRIC FIREPLACES
The warmth and comfort from a fireplace is second to known
Do you use the fireplace in your home a lot? Fireplaces are a popular accessory in many homes across Cornwall because they are a great way to stay warm and cozy in the living room with friends and family. You can spend some real quality time around a fireplace and it is even better in the wintertime and when the colder nights roll in!
A lot of homes in Cornwall are now switching to natural gas or electric fireplaces. This is because they are much easier to use and they are simple to control. Of course, this means that problems are much more likely to happen since the fireplace is now an appliance in your home. After all, although they can last many years in your house, they are just like anything else that you use a lot and are open to wear and tear.
WHEN SHOULD I CALL FOR SERVICE?
A lot of people assume that they know how to fix their fireplace when it has broken or malfunctioned. There are only a few switches, right? But, it is never a good idea to play around with your fireplace in Cornwall. You can actually cause more damage by pressing and switching things when you don’t know what you are doing. This will lead to costly repairs down the line or even replacement. That is the last thing that you want! Plus, if you have a gas fireplace, it is actually dangerous to try to fix it on your own. Gas can be poisonous for your family when it is wrongly emitted and since you cannot see it, this can be very dangerous without you knowing.
That is why you should look into choosing an HVAC company like Houde Mechanical. We have licenced gas technicians on our team who can help you when your fireplace breaks down in Cornwall. We know how to repair and install gas and electric fireplaces safely so you don’t have to worry.
There will be plenty of signs that your fireplace needs repaired, you just need to know what to look out for and make sure that you don’t ignore it. After all, the longer you delay with problems, the worse they can get and it can even lead to a replacement. if you have an electric fireplace, it is simple to know when it is not working. If nothing happens when you turn it on and you have tried switching it on and off, then it is time to call in a professional. In addition, if you notice that it is not emitting the same heat as it did before, there could be a problem with the fan or that it needs cleaning. It is easy for a build-up of dirt and debris to gather on the fan, so a regular maintenance service could be all that you need to get the best from your fireplace all year round.
If you have a gas fireplace, you have got to be a lot more careful because if something is wrong, it can be dangerous for your whole family. If your pilot light will not come on, it is best to call out a licenced gas technician as soon as possible. The last thing that you want is a gas leak, as carbon monoxide poisoning can be fatal. If you smell a bad odour or suspect that something is not right with your gas fireplace, it is best not to take any risks and phone a professional to come out and investigate.
