Service + Fault Finding
If the fireplace is due for maintenance and has an operating issue, choose our combined service and fault-finding option.
The gas fitter can complete the normal service inspection while also diagnosing the reported fault.
This avoids treating routine servicing and diagnosis as two completely separate visits where both are required.
Gas Fireplace Safety Inspection
During servicing we assess the accessible components of the fireplace and its operation for obvious safety or performance concerns.
Depending on the model and installation, this may include checking:
If we identify a condition that prevents the appliance from being safely operated, the fireplace may need to remain isolated until the required repair is completed.
Ignition & Pilot Problems
Ignition problems are one of the most common reasons customers book gas fireplace fault finding.
Potential causes can include faults involving:
-
Pilot assembly
-
Ignition components
-
Flame sensing
-
Gas supply
-
Appliance controls
-
Remote or receiver
-
Electrical components
-
Burner components
The correct repair depends on the specific fireplace model and the results of onsite testing.
Regency Remote Control Problems
Some Regency gas fireplaces use remote controls or electronic receivers to control ignition, flame height, fan operation or temperature.
If the fireplace does not respond correctly, we can investigate whether the issue appears to relate to the:
-
Handheld remote
-
Batteries
-
Receiver
-
Wall control
-
Ignition system
-
Fireplace control system
Replacement remotes, receivers or electronic components are additional where required.
Fireplace Fan Faults
Many gas fireplaces use a fan to distribute warm air into the room.
Common fan complaints include:
The gas fitter can inspect accessible components and determine whether additional repair or replacement is required.
Sooting or Abnormal Flame
A gas fireplace should not be ignored if its flame pattern changes significantly or excessive soot develops.
Possible signs requiring inspection include:
Stop using the fireplace and arrange an inspection if you are concerned about its operation.
Gas Smell From a Fireplace
If you can smell gas around the fireplace, stop using the appliance.
Where safe to do so:
-
Turn the fireplace off
-
Isolate the appliance gas supply
-
Ventilate the area
-
Avoid flames or ignition sources
-
Arrange inspection by a licensed gas fitter
Gas leak investigation may involve testing beyond the fireplace itself where required.

Older Regency Fireplaces
