Hey, I have no idea what it involves. Maybe you could tell me, so I know, and know the point of getting it checked. Maybe you could be uber-helpful and tell me how often it should be done.
I know of the dangers involved with open-flued gas appliances. I would never have a flueless gas fire, what a ghastly idea.

a gas appliance should be serviced at least once a year, as for what is involved ; several checks of all that is involved concerning the safe operation of a gas apliance.
Problem is you might not but other people might, and not done right or dont see the faults , then your gas fire could kill you.
Is this some kind of secret cartel or what? Official secrets act? I am NOT going to be doing this myself.
No secret cartel but its gas work and we dont give advice on gas work on this forum.
A proper service every 12months should be sufficient for a gas fire. Safety checks are a false economy unless its a tight landlord who wont pay anyway
Definately not a job for DIY. Minimum checks include operational and visual inspections of the flue, burner pressure/gas rate, ventilation, operation of safety devices, clearances from combustible materials, and then double checking the flue and ventilation! Fun and games at times.
