Fireplaces

No, houses are not required to have a chimney.

If the damper should close while a fire is burning, all of the smoke will be coming out in the house- NOT a good thing. Most dampers have a hold-open device held in place by gravity.

You can find a fireplace in building mode in living room, it costs 6 LP.

dangling participle!

Is there anything can appy to make pine wood burn in the fire place

Because chimneys are very observant. It seems like they understand that there's more to see in the west than in any other direction.

Online-ebay, craigs list, amazon. Other than that you will have to find someone who will want one, no stores will buy them really.

Dont think so, they are made totally different, gas would need to be vented somehow. The electric only uses a fan to blow heater coil heat at you. Gas logs are usually inserted into a normal fireplace, using the existing vent system. You should call a chimney service and ask them about it..

To the left or right of the fireplace but not above it, you can use trunking to make the wires look nice and neat. The heat from the fire is not good for your equip and heat rises.

When dry- good, yes. Great- no. Heat value is lower than oak, hickory, locust, ash. It is not often burned (except scrap) due to the value of the wood for woodworking. It is a very heavy wood.

where can we find logs for modelrmh 32 T serial no. 98290415 gas LP

Most of them are made of hard material, which makes it very hard to lift up.

It is important that you KEEP THE FIREPLACE VENT DAMPER OPEN when you

are using it. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN LEAD TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

AND DEATH.

Oak, ash, black locust, osage orange. Hickory is good but pops a lot. Poplar, cottonwood and any evergreen will burn VERY fast.

Check with Martin for an owner's manual. Unless a fireplace is specifically rated as multi-fuel, a gas fireplace cannot safely burn wood.

No, mass is an innate property of matter, and matter can not be destroyed in a chemical reaction. Although after the fire the remains (ashes) weigh less than the original wood, the fire has also produced CO2, Carbon (soot/smoke) and H2O as gases and this is where the mass that was once part of the wood has gone.

I asked a friend who installs furnaces and sells wood stoves this question. He said that he knows several people who swear by it. An older gentleman in my neighborhood said to put Potassium chloride, or sodium chloride, 2-3 Tablespoons per week, on a hot fire. I was wondering where to buy it, then he said, "Why, that's just Ice Melt."

So, it appears that some minerals, Sodium, Potassium, aluminum, may have some value? I tried to find ingredients on one of those creosote sweeping logs. For 15 dollars, they are probably just soaked in mineral water then dried. I am going to try the aluminum cans. Our outdoor wood burner is in an outbuilding. The tall flu pipe appears to be building up creosote. We are told that it is "cold shock"???? I'll write back here after a few weeks, if I notice less creosote.

I assume it is not possible that gel cannot move easiliy as gas fireplaces. recommendation will be a bio ethanol fireplace.

Not the best. Burns very quickly, generates a lot of creosote. A little bit used as kindling is OK, but would not use a lot of it. When we lived in Colorado, most firewood WAS fir- all that grew in that area.

It burns well, but should be allowed to dry at least 12 months before burning, it is VERY heavy, and a real pain to split. A powered log splitter will split it, a splitting maul will be a LOT of work. It does burn quite hot, pleasant odor.

you will die a horrible slow death. it starts with blood spurting out your eyes and ends with your skin falling off, im not going to say whats in between (too gross)

have a nice day :D

Bad themocouple. Have gas appliance repair check and replace it. They wear out.

It depends on the finish of the fireplace, if it is painted use caution so as not to damage the finish. Check anything you would use to clean it on an inconspicuous place first to check for finish damage.

If it is simply adhesive residue, apply some mineral oil (baby oil is a good source) or mineral spirits (paint thinner) or a light lubricating oil like WD-40. Allow to sit for a few minutes, the adhesive will soften and can be removed by rubbing with a rag. It may take several applications depending on the amount of residue and how long it has been on there. Wash the oils off with plain soap and water once the adhesive has been removed. Patients pays off in this case, scrubbing or abrasives will probably change the finish around where the tape was left.

You really should not burn ANY solid fuel in a gas fireplace.

"To light your fireplace logs you will probably want to use a candle lighter. These are made by big, and they have an extension at the end where the flame comes out when you pull the trigger."
