A gas fireplace adds convenience and beauty to a home but opens a safety concern especially if the gas is accidently turned on or a leak forms. This is why having a damper clamp is important. This simple c-clamp device attaches to the damper via a thumb screw and leaves a small gap for gas or fumes to travel. It is also referenced in building code through the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) via 211.9.9.1. Therefore if you home or structure lacks the proper clamp, it can result in the gas being shut off, fireplace tagged or may result in a delay of a sales transaction. Ironically the clamp is generally sold for less than $10.00.  It is rare that such an inexpensive device results in extraordinary safety benefits but the damper clamp is exactly that. Protect your family by checking your gas fireplace today.
