If your gas fire is “sooting up” it means that black soot is accumulating on the fire or surrounding surfaces, sooing up is dangerous, you must stop using your fire if you see soot like in the picture. This is a common issue that can indicate incomplete combustion, poor ventilation, or a problem with the burner. Regular servicing is crucial to prevent sooting.

How often should I service my gas fire?

It’s recommended to service your gas fire annually. Regular servicing helps prevent breakdowns, identify potential safety issues, and keep your fire running efficiently. A professional gas fire service will include a thorough inspection or the fire, chimney / flue along with cleaning, and testing of all components.

**IMPORTANT** If you’re experiencing physical symptoms like headaches, nausea, or dizziness, these could be signs of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, which can occur if your gas fire isn’t burning properly. CO is a colorless, odorless gas that can be deadly if inhaled in large amounts. If you suspect CO poisoning, it’s critical to turn off your gas fire, ventilate the area, and seek immediate medical attention. Regular servicing of your gas fire can help prevent CO buildup and ensure your safety.
