Sunset fireplaces work at altitude, and altitude changes everything — thinner air, weaker pilot flames, and venting that has to be set up for elevation, not sea level. Our techs diagnose yours on the spot, adjust it properly, and leave it lighting first try.
Your information is kept private and used only for your fireplace service request.
From the first cold-night no-light call to a brand-new installation set up for mountain elevation, these are the six fireplace services Sunset homeowners book with us, with free estimates.
Repair
Fireplace Repair
Any fireplace, any failure — diagnosed first, then fixed with the right parts. Smoke stains, a damper that will not seal, a blower gone loud — if it burns, vents or ignites, we repair it.

Gas Fireplace Repair
Gas units at altitude need a different setup — this is the call we run most in Davis County. Pilot that won't stay lit, dead remote, weak or lazy flame: gas systems diagnosed safely and repaired to code.

Cleaning & Care
Fireplace Cleaning
Soot, dust and that stale closed-up smell removed from the firebox, glass and burner — the deep clean that clears fast-building softwood creosote before it becomes a flue fire risk.

Firebox, flue, venting and controls checked end to end, with a plain-language report. Worth doing before a working winter — and always before lighting a fireplace in a home that sat empty.

A fireplace in Sunset works at elevation, in dry cold and wide temperature swings few other regions see. Altitude, pine smoke, snow and long idle months in second homes do the damage here — this is what we check on every visit.
Mountain and foothill homes burn what grows here — pine and other softwoods — and softwood smoke lays down creosote faster than hardwood does, especially in slow, overnight burns. In Sunset that buildup is the main flue-fire risk we clean out. If you burn daily for heat, an annual cleaning is the minimum, not the maximum.
A Sunset winter day can swing from hard freeze to thaw and back by nightfall. That cycling works moisture in and out of masonry, stresses metal venting, and makes a cold flue draft poorly at startup — the classic puff of smoke into the room. We read those startup problems as venting and temperature clues, not mysteries.
Heavy snow sits on caps, bends lightweight covers, and can bury low vent terminations on direct-vent units in Davis County. A buried or crushed vent means poor draft, soot and shutdowns right when you need heat most. After big storms we check caps and terminations first — before assuming a part inside has failed.
Late-summer smoke changes how Sunset burns. On bad air days, wood burning is restricted and discouraged, and many homeowners lean on gas instead — which is why gas units that sat unused all summer get found out in the smoke season, not winter. We service both, so whichever fuel you rely on is ready.

Often it is not a broken part at all — it is altitude. Thin air weakens the pilot flame, so the thermocouple cools, thinks the flame is out, and shuts the gas off. Dust in the pilot makes it worse. A tech cleans the pilot, tests the thermocouple, and checks the altitude setup before replacing anything.
At least once a year if you burn regularly — and sooner if wood heat is a main heat source. Pine and other local softwoods lay down creosote quickly, and slow overnight burns make it worse. In Sunset, daily burners can build a risky layer in a single season, so do not stretch cleanings to every other year.
Follow the local air-quality guidance for that day — on bad smoke days, wood burning is restricted or strongly discouraged across much of Utah, and adding fireplace smoke to wildfire smoke helps nobody. Many Sunset homeowners switch to gas on those days instead. If your gas unit has sat idle, have it serviced before you need to rely on it.
Usually a cold flue. Overnight mountain cold fills the flue with heavy, sinking air, and the first smoke cannot push it up — so it spills into the room until the flue warms. A blocked cap or snow around the vent makes it worse. A tech checks the flue, cap and draft, and shows you a startup routine that warms the flue first.
At altitude, a gas flame that is not adjusted for elevation burns cooler and dirtier, and soot on the glass is often the first visible sign. Dusty burners and shifted logs make it worse. Cleaning the glass alone treats the symptom — a tech cleans the burner, checks the log placement, and verifies the altitude setup so it stays clean longer.
No — and be wary of anyone who does. Every fireplace fails differently, so a phone price is a guess that changes at your door. Our estimates are free: a tech looks at the actual problem, then gives you one clear price before any work starts.
