We are the best gas chimney repair in Knoxville TN because we show up, provide an honest opinion of your system and quote a fair price. So often, the biggest challenge in serving the gas chimney is having someone SHOW UP.
There are many times that homeowners told us no one answered a call or showed up after 6 or more calls! That is not right. For many, a gas fireplace is the sole source of heat for their home. With temperatures in east Tennessee routinely in the teens overnight, we must help everyone keep their gas chimney systems working.

Best gas chimney repair Knoxville Testimonial
We are not showing you this to brag. Actually, we are so frustrated at the lack of service by so many others in the industry. Many won’t travel over 30 miles outside of Knoxville TN. Really? With all of the homes in the Great Smoky Mountains, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville, this is not right.
Clear Chimney travels from Cookeville TN to Morristown TN and down to Chattanooga TN. We even go up into Kentucky for special services. We view this as a service to our fellow families. Heating in your home can mean the difference in surviving the winter.
Depending on the type of burner and logs, the propane gas that a fireplace will use is around a gallon per 100,000 BTUs. Many folks will install a 50,000 BTU burner with logs so therefore, it will equal 1 gallon for every 2 hours of use.
The typical outside propane tank of most homes is 500 gallons. Propane is used for stoves, clothes dryers and hot water on top of the fireplace. This means the tank will last around 6 to 7 months with average use.
How much propane gas does a fireplace use?
Propane does not have as much energy as natural gas. Therefore, it takes different orifices to burn propane. When you buy a stove or instantaneous water heater, be sure to specify propane. The two different gases do not use the same orifices.
Another common service issue we see is the size of the gas line from the propane tank. Often, changes over time will have different pipe sizes inside the house. This can starve the gas leading to the fireplace. The amount of heat a propane fireplace provides depends on the right amount of gas.
We will provide a free estimate on the installation of the log set. If you do not have a propane tank or natural gas, we will help coordinate the installation from the suppliers. Clear Chimney is able to install the black pipe necessary to get the gas logs working quickly.
We respond to many service calls about their gas fireplace logs keep going out. Often times, the logs are not that old. There are a few reasons why the heating source is not working properly.
The installation is typically the problem in logs less than a year old. Too many rocks or artificial ash and embers will clog up the orifice. Also, the CO2 sensor will trip as a safety.
In business since 2016, gas logs are our specialty. Check out the log store at the top of this page for all types of products for your home. We have great reviews on Google, Yelp and Facebook (and no we do not pay for the reviews).
