Log lighter leak
Hey guys,
I have just noticed that I have a small gas leak coming from my fireplace.
The leak appears to originate from my "Dante Log Lighter Valve" which is mounted in the mortar.
When I don't tighten it enough = leak
When I tighten as tight as I can = more gas leaks out
When I go somewhere in between = less of a leak but still able to smell gas.
So my question is: how do I replace the valve when it is surrounded by brick and mortar?
Thanks in advance.
