I have GTI model GLS-18NG natural gas fireplace. I can't find GTI on the net (Savage, MI is listed as their address and their phone number is invalid). Anyway, the thing has a broken gas hose and is leaking gas (I taped it up temporarily). Is this something I can attempt to repair, or should I let a pro do it? BTW, where is the main gas valve to a home typically located? If I can turn the main line off, I can either repair the fireplace or cap off the gas inlet. Will I create any problems for other appliances (like my gas furnance) by shutting off the main gas line temporarily, e.g. letting air in the lines, etc.??
