Gas Fireplace Maintenance Tips

There has always been something comforting about fireplaces. On a cold winter day, you may come inside to grab a hot beverage and warm up by a roaring fire. Not only do fireplaces warm up your home, but they also make your house more inviting and increase the value of your home. Gas fireplaces are also known to be safer than wood-burning, as they do not create sparks or release dangerous fumes or particles into the air. You can also rely on a gas fireplace to keep you and your family warm if the power goes out or your furnace breaks down during the colder months. Take comfort in knowing that the cold will be left outdoors where it belongs while we repair your furnace.  

Regular maintenance and check-ups are essential for a smooth-running gas fireplace. In order to clean the glass, place a small amount of cleaner on a dry cloth and move the cloth in a circular motion; remove any excess solution with another dry cloth. You should only use fireplace glass cleaner for cleaning the unit, as regular glass cleaners like Windex contain ammonia-based chemicals which could damage the glass. Always remember to turn your fireplace off and allow it to cool before starting any maintenance. 

To clean dust from your gas fireplace, start by unplugging the blower cord. Once unplugged, use a small brush to remove any dust from around the unit. Finally, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up any leftover dust. 

An annual inspection is an important factor in properly maintaining your gas fireplace. A licensed technician will check the unit for broken glass, cracked or chipped framework, as well as inspect the gas line. If you are experiencing any issues with your fireplace or gas line or need an inspection, Twintech is just a call away. Our technicians have a wide range of diagnostic equipment to determine the problem and fix any issues with your gas fireplace.

by Mike B. Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Very professional, courteous, knowledgeable staff. Sales staff (David Gergley) excellent in knowledge and getting the job setup and installation was very prompt. Greg and Peter (technicians) knew their stuff and stuck around after completion to make sure it all worked properly and that I understood how it all was installed and how the unit worked. Would highly recommend them! Thanks for a great job-house is now cool and comfortable.

by Steve S in Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had Twintech install a brand new air condition back in June of this year and I'm very happy with their service. I have a very busy schedule so I sent out an email to 7 or 8 HVAC companies just to get an idea of what it would cost. Dave at Twintech and only one other company were able to give me an approximate quote through email. Many of the companies I reached out to didn't even respond. I decided to meet with Dave and he was very friendly and professional. He gave me a good quote for a name brand/energy efficient AC with installation from their certified technicians. It was an easy decision to go with them.

Within a week I had the unit installed and working perfectly. Their technicians were very helpful and answered all of my questions. I'll definitely be calling them back for all of my HVAC needs in the future.

by Tina - Whitby in Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

The people from Twintech were very friendly and personable...from the salesman to the installers. The installation was done as scheduled. I love my new air conditioner. My neighbour has a York and that thing is so noisy compared to my Goodman!! Thanks Twintech!!

by Cathy f. from Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Thank you, Twintech. They installed an A/C in my home in the middle of a heat wave which we appreciated very much. I found the team good, not overly friendly, other than the brothers. Dave, the salesperson was awesome, and, it's because of him that I was sold on using Twintech. I had other questions about additional work I am curious about and would have liked them to follow up and provide a quote. Other than that, which ultimately is not related to the great work they did, I would definitely recommend them, although I don't believe they go outside of Durham (check with them).

by Linda from Durham Region on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We have used this company a few times so I can't remember exactly what we paid but I do know that their fees are always very reasonable.

The first time we called Greg was when our furnace conked out while we were away. He came right away, showed me the problem and fixed it immediately.

The second time was when we needed an air conditioner moved and lifted to a platform. Again, he showed up on time, completed the job quickly (including a new gas line) and the fee was very reasonable.

We have received a quote from Greg to replace the air conditioner and furnace and when we are ready to move ahead, we will be calling him.

I have no hesitation in recommending TwinTech!

by AS from Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Our rating for Twintech is 5/5 stars. They are very professional and efficient, and the transparency they maintain right from the preliminary assessment till the day of the work is a testament to their experience in the field. We had Twintech replace our air conditioning and furnace, and we appreciate the efforts taken by Greg.

by Raymond from Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

After 18 years my Air conditioner died in the middle of a heat wave. I entered my information on Home Stars and within the hour Dave from Twin Tech responded and offered to meet me as soon as possible depending on my availability. Dave was very knowledgeable about the products Twin Tech offered and even though this was the first quote I received . I felt very comfortable in giving Twin Tech my business. maybe it was the professional approach. Needless to say that the crew with Greg and Grant arrived promptly at the time they committed to were very professional and within a few hours had the place cool. They cleaned up and one would never know that I had work done . I know that the System is new and I probably wont need to worry about it for some time. However with the professionalism displayed by the crew I feel assured that should I need to call for service Twin Tech will respond. I also know that should I need a new Heating system I will go with Twin Tech. Keep up the good work.

by gerard harrington from Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Greg and team were amazing! All interaction via email and text 100% professional. From consult to product recommendation their service was phenomenal!

Installed a Napoleon furnace (ecm dc drive variable 2-stage) and it was a game changer for the whole house. Blended air temperature through and through the entire house and it’s saving us money by cutting down our utility bill by ALOT!

by D &. from Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We purchased a new cooling & heating system from Twintech and the team was fantastic. From sales to installation, the team were great to work with. Friendly (our dog even enjoyed having them over), professional and accommodating. I’d recommend Twintech in a heart beat to anyone. Superb customer service.

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!
