Clean the fireplace glass periodically with a ceramic-specific glass cleaner.
Dust logs and burners with a soft brush or vacuum (gently — don’t relocate logs from their original positions!).
Test your carbon monoxide detector regularly — it’s a crucial safety tool for any gas appliance.
Replace remote or receiver batteries if your fireplace uses a remote control.
