Radiation energy.
Chemical to heat
Wood in a fireplace. When woods burns it gives of heat, a form of energy. Thus the wood has more potential energy.
Yes, you feel infrared radiation a form of electromagnetic radiation.

Radiant energy
A fireplace heats a room by radiation. That radiation is the direct transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.
Yes, you feel infrared radiation a form of electromagnetic radiation.
Fireplaces have mostly radiant heat- infrared light. All light travels in a straight line- that whey the people in front feel the heat.
Using a fireplace means you don't have to use as much heat in your house, as they fire also produces natural heat. Heating hosues takes fossil fuels and energy, so having some heat come from a fireplace means that less heat has to be taken from natural resources like oil and coal.
Because theres fire in the place
Heat inside of fireplace only radiates out so far.
Heat cast forward out of a firepalce is called radiant heat and it the only usable heat that a fireplace can create The wasted heat that a fireplace creates is called combusion heat that rises up the chimney.
