I have a gas fireplace in the family room that is probably a bit oversized for the room. It can turn things tropical in relatively short order. While relighting the pilot the other day, I noticed that the fire still burns (but less vigourously) if the gas control knob is left in an intermediate position between "pilot" and "on".
Can't remember the right terminology at the moment, but the fp unit is sealed with connections to outside for air and exhaust.
Is there any reason not to leave the flame turned down?
Thanks, Chris
