We have a gas burning fireplace that has turned the brick black. I am at a loss for an explanation to this, it has just started. However, what suggestions do you have for cleaning the brick face?

Black is soot and it is caused by too rich of a mixture i.e. there is too much gas and not enough air. Any store the sells equipment for fireplaces will carry a cleaner that works well.
