Fireplace Services in MD, DC & VA
Every home and business in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC, needs a safe, reliable way to stay warm when the weather turns cold. While a furnace may get the job done, there’s nothing quite like snuggling up by the fire on a snowy winter’s day. Whether you’re looking to install a gas fireplace for the first time or your existing fixture needs some attention, Chimney.com has you covered. Our fireplace experts have been serving the DC metro area for over 30 years.
Gas Fireplace Installations
Nothing compares to the flickering light and cozy warmth of a fireplace. When you install a gas burner, insert, or built-in fireplace, you can enjoy these benefits with the flick of a switch. Chimney.com helps homes and businesses convert wood-burning fireplaces to gas fireplaces. We even install new gas fireplaces from scratch, with no existing chimney or flue required!
Here’s a look at our gas fireplace installation options:
- Gas burners: If you already have a wood-burning fireplace, simplify the process of lighting a fire by converting it to a gas-log fireplace. This cost-effective upgrade comes in vented and vent-free configurations based on your needs.
- Gas inserts: For exceptional heat and functionality from your fireplace, consider installing a gas insert. The upfront price is higher than a gas burner, but operating costs are lower, which could make it less costly in the long run. The aesthetic value from sleek interior options and eye-catching surroundings is enough to transform the look of any room.
- Built-in gas fireplaces: If your home or business currently has no fireplace, this is the only option available. Choose a vented option if you want the look of a traditional fireplace with a masonry chimney. Vent-free models let you enjoy the beauty and functionality of a fireplace with no chimney required.
Gas Fireplace Repairs
It’s discouraging when you want to use your fireplace but it’s not working correctly. Before you schedule gas fireplace repair, try troubleshooting the problem yourself. We suggest looking for tripped breakers, adjusting the thermostat setting, and checking for a blown-out pilot light. If nothing you try seems to work, get in touch with us today.
We can help resolve any problem with your gas fireplace, including:
- Fireplace not turning on: When basic troubleshooting tips don’t work, the issue might stem from a faulty gas valve, propane tank, or gas line. For your safety, leave these sorts of repairs to a professional.
- Strange odors: Don’t worry if your new fireplace produces an odd smell. However, if the odor resembles rotten eggs, this could indicate a gas leak, which requires immediate attention.
- Unusual noises: Gas fireplaces should operate virtually soundlessly. Call for a repair if you hear rumbling, roaring, grinding, or shrieking.
- Soot buildup: Excessive soot indicates a problem with the airflow, chimney, firebox, or burner. All of these problems require help from a professional fireplace repair company.
- Cloudy glass: If condensation forms on the glass, a white film could develop as minerals in the water are left behind. This is no cause for concern, but you may need to clean the glass to remove the cloudiness.
