Do gas fireplaces need to be cleaned?

If you have a gas fireplace installed in your home, it is recommended that it be professionally cleaned at least once a year. This is because gas fireplaces generate debris build-up over time that can obstruct your ventilation. When this occurs, your fireplace will not be able to function as optimally, which can cause safety concerns for your home.

In addition, overtime debris build-up can also cause several problems in your fireplace that may require repairing or a complete replacement. Therefore, by servicing your gas fireplace once a year, you can be proactive and diagnose issues before they become costly and damaging to your home.

How often should gas fireplaces be serviced?

Homeowners should commit to serving their gas fireplaces once a year. During this time, a professional company can also provide you with cleaning services to ensure your fireplace functions optimally throughout the year, especially during the cooler months.

Therefore, when planning to have your fireplaces serviced, homeowners should aim to have this scheduled at the end of summer or the beginning of fall before temperatures begin to drop. That way, you can make sure your home stays warm and comfortable when you need it.

What is the life expectancy of a gas fireplace?

Generally speaking, your gas fireplace has approximately 10 to 15 years before you will need to have it entirely replaced. However, if you do not invest in yearly cleaning and maintenance, you may experience problems with your fireplace that will result in you having to install a new system altogether. Therefore, if you want to get as many years out of your gas fireplace as you can, we suggest cleaning and servicing your fireplace at least once a year to ensure it functions optimally throughout the year without any problems.

Do gas fireplaces give off heat?

Yes, gas fireplaces throughout your home will give off heat as a result of the flame combusting the gas supply. Therefore, the heat that is produced is essentially a by-product of the combustion process. Further, a gas fireplace will be able to adequately heat the room that it is installed in, depending on its size. However, it will not be able to provide heat to your entire house.
