Fireplaces

A corner fireplace can cost many different amounts depending on how nice the fireplace it. A cheaper corner fireplace can cost approximately 600 dollars, where a more expensive one can run over 1,000 dollars.

They can be good or bad. Some stoves can produce a lot of air pollution from the smoke.

Bricks- especially the type known as firebrick- are able to withstand the high heat levels in a fire- so you do not burn your house down.

Fireplace screens have been in use as long as fireplaces have been. One of the original uses was to protect women's make up from being melted off as make up used to be made mostly from wax. These screens usually were on a pedestal closer to the height of a seated woman. The screens we see today began to be used in the early 1700's, so for about 300 years.

Crackling, popping flames.

Wood Stoves are not designed to burn wood all the efficiently and the coals you see are normal. There really isn't a lot you can do to improve the burning efficiency of your wood stove. If the stove is heating properly and you have a small amount of unburned charcoal, you are doing everything fine.

A set of gas logs for the fireplace can be relatively cheap (under $250), but can also run up to approximately $800. Part of the price will depend on any features (size, whether it's see-through, style, etc.).

A chimney cricket is a sloped structure added to a roof upstream of the chimney to divert rain water away from the chimney. They are installed to reduce the amount of rain water that may enter the house if the sealing around the chimney fails or is less than perfect.

If it is a colder region then a fireplace is a significant asset to add to the house and also increase the selling value. A hotter place will already be too hot for any extra heat.

One should be very careful when trying to keep a glass fireplace screen clean. Purchasing a glass fireplace screen protector is another option for those too busy to meticulously upkeep the screen.

Very little of the energy that goes to the electric fireplaces is wasted. However, as a heat source there are better, more efficient sources of heat.

Blue flames in a fireplace typically indicate that the fire is burning efficiently and at a high temperature. This is a sign that the fuel is being completely combusted, resulting in cleaner emissions and less soot or smoke. Blue flames are often associated with natural gas or propane fires.

The duration a fireplace fire burns for can vary based on factors such as the size of the firewood, airflow, and fuel quality. Typically, a well-maintained fire can burn for 3-5 hours before needing to be refueled. It is important to monitor the fire to ensure it is safe and contained.

Anthracite has a higher carbon content and burns cleaner with less smoke and ash compared to lignite. It also produces more heat energy, making it more efficient for heating purposes in a home fireplace. Furthermore, anthracite has a longer burn time and produces less creosote buildup, which can reduce the risk of chimney fires.

The main thing that one should do to make sure that heat is not being lost through the chimney of a fireplace is to always close the damper when the fireplace is not in use. In addition, you can also use a fireplace door or cover to prevent additional heat loss.

The residue left behind in a fireplace is called creosote. It is a dark, oily substance that forms from the incomplete combustion of wood and can build up in the chimney, posing a fire hazard. Regular chimney cleaning can help prevent the buildup of creosote.

Rubberwood is as good a material for making furniture as regular wood. Rubberwood is imported from the Far East, and after it has been kiln dried, it resists absorbing water.

Yes it just does not burn well because its a rubbery plant, the denser the fire wood the better for fires generally

The Pilot or O.D.S. is clog'd

It was important because it kept colonist from freezing and during.

yes it is because they work well with fire and the nutrients of the tulip wood makes it burn quicker

Well- you can't. Ventless is a different design. To try to do this would be extremely dangerous.

And you can its about the perspective of the asking party. Did they mean "can you take a vented log set/ and burner and make it into a vent-less log set/ burner and just close the damper then yes that would be dangerous and cannot be done, however if the asking party just meant can they use the existing fire box, and using a vent-less burner then this would be safe and acceptable
