How our Tildenville crew repairs vent-free units
Knowledge our Tildenville crew brings to every ventless log set and firebox.
Mantel and side clearances around a vent-free firebox
Clearances on a vent-free firebox come from the maker's chart. One manual wants a ceiling at least 40 inches above the top of the opening, keeps combustible trim at least 3 inches from the opening and places a mantel that projects 5 inches about 13 inches or more above it.
Figures change from model to model, so we measure against the chart in your manual. When a mantel sits too low, the manual allows raising it or removing it, and our estimate prices whichever you prefer.
White powder on the burner or nearby walls
A white residue inside the burner box or on nearby walls often comes from household products. One manual explains that vapors from furniture polish, wax and carpet cleaner turn into a white powder when heated, and says to turn the heater off while using them.
Our technicians clean the residue from the burner area and tell you which habits to change. Once the cause is known, the fix is quick.
Condensation on the windows
Fogged windows in a room with a vent-free fireplace carry a message. One troubleshooting chart lists moisture or condensation on windows under a single cause, too little combustion and ventilation air, and sends the owner back to the air requirements.
Our technicians recheck the room volume, the openings and every other appliance in the space. The written findings tell you what needs to change and what it costs, with no hidden fees.
Early signs of carbon monoxide exposure
Vent-free manuals describe early carbon monoxide poisoning as flu-like, with headaches, dizziness or nausea. If anyone in the house has those signs while the fireplace runs, turn the fireplace off, get everyone outside into fresh air and call 911.
The manuals add that some people are affected more than others, including pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease and people with anemia. Once everyone is safe and has been checked, have the heater serviced before it runs again.
Vent-free units in a garage
One log set manual covers garages directly. If the heater goes in a home garage, the pilot and burner must sit at least 18 inches above the floor, and the unit must stand where a moving vehicle cannot hit it.
Its instructions keep these heaters away from places where flammable liquids or vapors are used or stored, which rules out many garages. We check both conditions before servicing a garage unit.

Your ventless fireplace questions, answered for Tildenville
Short answers grounded in the manuals and the Florida fuel gas code, from our Tildenville technicians.
Can an ODS pilot be cleaned, or does it need replacing?
Often it can be cleaned. One manual recommends compressed air at no more than 30 PSI and never a wire or needle. If the flame still misses the thermocouple afterward, the pilot assembly listed for your model and gas type is replaced.
Why do my windows fog when the ventless fireplace runs?
A gas flame gives off water vapor as it burns, and with no vent that moisture stays in the room. One troubleshooting chart ties condensation on windows to too little combustion and ventilation air. The room volume and its openings need rechecking.
