POOL AND PATIO FURNITURE
Q: Can gas fireplaces run during a power outage?
A: Yes! Gas fireplaces, inserts, and stoves can operate safely during a power outage. The fireplace will continue to produce radiant heat and warm up the home. If your unit has a blower it will no longer work, Stephani Nash however, a blower is not necessary for the operation or safety of the fireplace. Because gas fireplaces have battery backups or ignition packs that ignite the fireplace in case of power loss, your gas fireplace will continue to operate safely.

HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING
QDo I need to do maintenance on my Air Conditioning and Heating System if it’s working fine?
AYES! Even though your air conditioner, furnace, heat pump, ductless and gas fireplace are working fine…this doesn’t Theo Carroll mean they are. It's often the most expensive equipment in your home so maintenance is critical. To extend operating life, heating/cooling equipment should be serviced at least once a year to ensure it operates safely, at maximum efficiency, and to manufacturer’s specifications.
