Gas
fireplaces in North Vancouver are typically equipped with a blower.
This is the part that expels warm air into your room. The speed of
the blower is adjustable so homeowners can find the right speed that
works well in heating up their room. Blowers naturally emit a
whirring sound but if you think the noise level is louder than
normal, there could be something wrong with it.
One
possible cause is dirt. If the blower’s motor has accumulated dust,
it tends to work harder to keep your room cold. The accumulated dirt
is impeding its functions. Some people choose to clean the blower
themselves but if you are inexperienced in this, call a fireplace
technician such as ProGas North Shore to get the job done properly
and safely.
Another
reason is because the bearings in the motor has worn out already.
This can happen as your fireplace gets older. Once the bearings have
sustained damages that can’t be repaired, they need to be replaced.
If cleaning the blower did not make the noise subside, you would have
to change the bearings, even the entire blower.
It’s
best to consult a fireplace expert to make more accurate diagnosis.
Gas
fireplaces in North Vancouver
can be difficult to fix and only licensed professionals can do the
work. You can also avoid experiencing this problem by having your
fireplace regularly serviced. Annual cleaning ensures that the
blowers will not accumulate dirt and dust. This will also help
prolong the life of the bearings.
