Gas
fireplaces in North Vancouver are some of the most efficient heating
systems today. But because this burns gas, you would want to make
sure that you are in no danger of potential problems like carbon
monoxide emission.
1. Make
sure your safety screen is in place.
There
should be a protective screen installed over the glass of the
fireplace. These are needed to prevent things like burns. You need
the protective screen especially when you have children at home. But
make sure you also remind your kids never to play with the gas
fireplace and touch the safety screen as heat can still be
transferred on it.
2. Install
a carbon monoxide detector.
Since
carbon monoxide is odorless and colorless, it is hard to detect
whether there is a high level of carbon monoxide in your home. By the
time its presence is noticed, the inhabitants of the home might have
already succumbed to its lethal effects. Install this kind of
detector near your gas fireplace. Make sure
you replace batteries when needed.
3. Have
your fireplace inspected.
Call
licensed technicians such as Pro Gas North Shore to have your gas
fireplace checked annually. Your gas heater technician can look for
signs of leaks and repair existing problems.
By
keeping your gas fireplace maintained properly, you can be assured
that it will function properly and will not cause harm to your family
when you use it during the winter season.
