    The Importance of Regular Fireplace Maintenance

    You should have your gas or electric fireplace serviced every one to two years. Failure to do so could lead to serious issues jeopardizing your comfort and safety. For example, carbon can build up on the glass, the burners and inside the vents, and extended wear and tear can lead to hazardous natural gas and carbon monoxide leaks.
