[DIY] Re: gas fireplace gone out
Thanks for the help on the fireplace. As far as I can tell this fireplace is completely enclosed with only a on/off switch and fan switch on the wall. I can't see any other adjustments or knobs. I've never turned the pilot light out because I can't see any way of doing it. I think I should be turning that out in the summer. It puts out heat. I've been trying to call the gas company but their phone lines are so tied up the recording just says to try some other time. Must be that time of year. Glad it's not an emergency. Wish it was something simple I could figure out though. Sunny

I have found out something about it now. It's a Superior and I was able to take off the front panel and find the on/off/pilot button. However I can't tell what it's on. OFF is pointing toward the top but there is not tick mark or point of reference that I can see. Could it have tripped itself off? I can see the pilot light burning now so I know that is on. There is also a panel of instruction inside. Who knew! But it doesn't show how to tell how to tell if the on/off button for the gas is on or off. I have found a manual for a similar model on the internet but it's about installing it not owner's manual. Sunny
