Gas Fireplace Repair and Service in Naperville, IL
A gas fireplace that won't light, a pilot that keeps going out or a remote that quit. Our plumbers are licensed for gas work and repair, clean and service gas fireplaces across Naperville, from our office on Main Street.
Is Your Naperville Gas Fireplace Acting Up?
Here's what usually goes wrong:
It Won't Light
Dust and debris collect in the pilot and burner over the summer. The first cold night is when you find out.
The Pilot Goes Out
A worn thermocouple or thermopile is shutting off the gas as a safety measure.
Black Glass
Soot on the glass means a dirty burner, logs out of place or a venting problem.
A Gas Smell
Get out, then call Nicor Gas or 911 from outside. We'll fix the source once it's safe.

Gas Fireplaces in Naperville's Boom-Era Homes
Gas fireplaces were a standard feature in many Naperville homes built in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, often in the family room and sometimes the primary bedroom too.
Builder Fireplaces at 20 to 40 Years
Original pilots, valves and thermopiles wear out. Most can be replaced without replacing the fireplace.
Fall Service
With nights in the single digits, a September or October cleaning keeps the fireplace ready.
Carbon Monoxide Safety
Keep a working detector near every gas appliance.
Two-Sided and Bedroom Fireplaces
Some larger Naperville homes have see-through fireplaces or a second unit in the primary bedroom. Each one needs its own yearly check, even if it rarely gets used.
