Gas Fires
Servicing, safety checks, installation and removal of gas fires.
Overview
A gas fire needs a working flue and good combustion to be safe. We service and safety-check existing fires, install new ones where the flue and ventilation allow, and safely disconnect and cap fires being removed. If a fire shows signs of poor combustion, such as soot or a lazy yellow flame, we will advise you to stop using it until it has been checked.
Common problems we deal with
- A fire that has not been serviced in years
- Sooting, staining or a yellow flame
- A fire to be removed and the supply capped
- Installing a new fire in an existing fireplace
How the work is done
- Inspection of the fire, flue and ventilation
- Service, repair, installation or removal as agreed
- Flue flow, spillage and tightness checks
- Advice on carbon monoxide alarms and safe use
What you get
- Confidence the fire is burning safely
- Flue checks as part of every visit
- Clean removal and capping when you no longer want it
- Work carried out by a Gas Safe registered business
Gas Fires: questions
Do I need a carbon monoxide alarm with a gas fire?
A carbon monoxide alarm is strongly recommended in any room with a fuel-burning appliance. Check current regulations for your property type; landlords have specific duties.
