In Fairview, propane country where wood heat is popular too, a gas fireplace that won't turn off means the LP valve is still feeding the burner — shut the appliance control and the tank's service valve now, and if you smell gas, leave and call. Call (828) 545-0525.
Propane is the Fairview default
Fairview's large wooded lots out toward Cane Creek and Garren Creek run largely on propane, and a propane fireplace that won't shut off gives you a third shutoff point — the tank's service valve — beyond the appliance knob and the supply valve behind the louver. The stuck component will be a propane-specific valve or control, sized to LP's higher pressure and different orifice, so we match the part to your fuel rather than assume natural gas.
A wood-heat town still leans on gas convenience
Plenty of Fairview homes burn wood, but the gas fireplaces here are the ones people run for easy, no-hauling heat — and when one won't quit, it's the same stuck-valve-or-stuck-signal fault as anywhere. Either the LP valve has stuck open, or a switch, receiver, or corroded wire is holding it on. Which one decides the part, and that's a diagnosis, not a guess.
