What You Get With **Gas Fireplace Service Burnaby**
A proper service visit focuses on safety first, then reliability. We clean the parts that affect ignition and flame stability, verify the safety circuit,
and confirm venting and combustion performance.
How we help (common service calls)
- Pilot or burner that won’t stay lit
- Delayed ignition, “whoosh” starts, or repeated lockouts
- Weak flame, uneven flame pattern, or flame lifting
- Glass sooting or unusual odors during operation
- Remote, wall switch, or thermostat control issues
- Annual maintenance for safe seasonal use
Common Problems We Catch During Service
Many fireplace failures start small. Service finds the root cause early so the unit stays reliable through the heating season.
- Dirty pilot assembly or ignitor that causes hard starts
- Weak thermopile output leading to pilot drop-out
- Loose wiring, corroded contacts, or weak batteries in remotes
- Restricted airflow or venting issues that affect combustion
- Burner ports partially blocked, causing uneven flame
- Misaligned logs that create soot and poor flame pattern
Data-driven service notes from real visits
- Most no-start issues: are ignition, pilot, flame-sensing, or control problems, not “bad gas”
- Most shutdown complaints: are weak flame proving, airflow/venting restrictions, or safety circuit interruptions
- Most soot on glass: comes from log placement, burner cleanliness, or combustion imbalance
- Best interval: annual service keeps ignition stable and reduces nuisance lockouts
