Signs You Need To Replace Your Gas Logs

There are several signs that your gas logs may be starting to wear out. While a few are more subtle than others, most will be noticeable in a short time. Always be observant!

Knowing what to look for will help you avoid a breakdown.

• Cracked or broken: Look for cracks, chips, or breaks that may appear suddenly or gradually over time.
• Uneven flames: If flames are even, it could mean that one or more of the small jets are blocked. Don’t try to clear them yourself! Call the professionals at Meetze Plumbing!
• Unfamiliar noises or popping sounds: If your logs begin to break down, you may hear unfamiliar noises or popping sounds. Call Meetze Plumbing right away!
• Unfamiliar smells or odors: Any time you smell something unfamiliar emanating from your gas logs or fireplace, it’s a sure sign that something is wrong. Turn off your fireplace and call the professionals.
• Won’t ignite or shut off: If your logs don’t ignite or shut off, the problem may be with your gas line. Don’t take chances! Wait for a professional technician to come out and inspect your fireplace.
