Why gas fireplace cleaning looks different in Malibu
Inspections in this fire zone start with the cap itself, since a corroded or poorly seated spark arrestor is the weak point once embers start moving. We check weld quality and mesh condition every year, not just whether the hardware is present. A typical visit ends up covering pilot assembly and thermocouple cleaning, ceramic log inspection and repositioning, and burner port cleaning for even flame, since the scope follows what the chimney actually needs rather than a flat rate quoted sight unseen.
