We have lived in the house six weeks or so, it was built in ‘94. This is a gas insert in a real fireplace (we have a chimney)…the pilot light is always on.

It very irregularly (like once a week or less) does this weird thing where it starts to make a drumroll or machine gun noise for about two seconds then stops. It continues to do this at irregular intervals until we turn the fireplace on and run it a while. Then it stops again for a week or more before it starts again….what gives? Is there air in the line or something? I am going to call the gas company but wondered if anyone heard of this happening before. It drives my dog crazy. She thinks there’s some critter in there!
Nope, it is not windy. Nope, it’s not a woodpecker. It’s very loud and coming from the pipe area.
