What goes into replacing fireplace glass in Audubon Park
Worth reading before you approve a glass replacement in Audubon Park.
Where the barrier requirement came from
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission found that glass fronts on vented gas fireplaces posed a risk of severe burns. The voluntary standards for vented gas fireplaces and fireplace heaters, ANSI Z21.50 and ANSI Z21.88, were revised in 2012 to require a protective barrier where the glass front exceeds 172 degrees Fahrenheit.
Industry notices put that requirement on units made from January 1, 2015. If your fireplace in Audubon Park is newer than that, it should have a barrier, and we check that it is present and undamaged during every glass job.
Older fireplaces without a barrier
Gas fireplaces made before the barrier requirement may have no screen at all. The glass on those units still gets hot, so the burn risk is the same even if the appliance met the rules of its day.
When we replace glass on an older unit in Audubon Park, we check whether the maker offers a barrier for that model. If one exists, it appears on the estimate as an option, and you decide whether to add it.
Cleaning after the first ten hours
New glass needs early attention. One manual has both faces of the glass cleaned once the fireplace has run its first 10 hours, and another asks for the inner face to be cleaned at the ten hour mark.
The first hours burn off residues that settle on the glass. We leave you with the schedule from your model's manual when a replacement is finished in Audubon Park, so the new panel starts its life clean.
When replacing the glass is not enough
Sometimes the glass is only the visible part of the problem. Soot, a poor flame, loose latches or a damaged firebox panel can all point to work beyond the glass itself.
When we find that in Audubon Park, you hear it before the new glass is ordered. The estimate separates the glass from any other repair, so you can see what each item fixes.

Quick answers on fireplace glass in Audubon Park
Short answers from the technicians who replace fireplace glass in Audubon Park.
Will the maker's warranty cover the glass?
It depends on the maker and the type of break. One maker covers its ceramic glass for thermal breakage only. We note the break type in writing to help if you raise it with the maker.
Why does the room smell of exhaust after I cleaned the glass?
The glass door may not have been reseated properly. Turn the fireplace off, air out the room and leave it off until the seating and seal have been checked.
