We have one of those glass fronted, fake coal, Gas fires. The pilot light is
now burning with a marked yellow colour, and there is a sooty streak
appearing above it on the inside of the glass - is there anything I can do
about it, or is it a case for the professionals ?



I was just nosing around on the internet and came up with something
that might be important for you to know!


Carbon monoxide may be present if there are any of the following
danger signs:

Gas flames that normally burn blue burn orange or yellow instead.
Sooty stains appear on or just above appliances, regardless of the
fuel being burnt.

Carbon monoxide is deadly so if i was you i wouldnt take a chance n
get it looked at straight away!
