Many people rely on their fireplace to help heat their home. In this case, fireplace repairs may be even more important to you. Trust the efficient, reliable team at RB Heating to respond to your call quickly, fix your fireplace properly, and communicate with you throughout the process.
If your electric or gas fireplace turns on but something doesn’t seem right, you likely have an issue that needs to be addressed sooner than later.
One of these signs means your fireplace needs repairs:
Odd smell: A rotten egg smell from a fireplace is dangerous and signals a gas leak. Other unusual smells should be noted and checked with a technician.
Pilot light trouble: If the pilot light is turning off, there could be a problem with the thermocouple or another part of the fireplace. This can lead to a gas leak and requires attention.
Low heat output: Fireplaces that are putting out less heat than normal could have a range of problems. If you notice less heat, it’s best to call a technician to have them do an inspection.
Birds or other animals in the chimney: Small animals, including birds, may take shelter from the cold in your fireplace chimney, and birds in particular may try to nest there for spring. Either way, these animals can damage your fireplace and need to be safely removed.
