"Got a call at 7:30 pm apologizing for not calling me earlier and telling me the dispatcher was late in giving him the information. I told him I wasn't actually complaining about any delay - I had only ordered this Angie's List deal earlier in that same day. He asked if he could come early the next morning, so we agreed on an 8:30am appt time.
 I arrived back at the house at 8:20 after taking the kids to daycare, and the technician was already there! He immediately recognized that I did not have a cutoff valve near my fireplace and told me about available options.  He removed the logs and located the problem with my oxygen sensor.  Since I didn't know what that was (as I have never had gas logs before), he showed me what it was and how it operated.
He cleaned the system and set the logs back into place.  The whole appointment only took 15 minutes!  Now the fireplace works and we can enjoy it in our home.

Fireplaces FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few things you can look out for to ensure your chimney is safe to use. Check for the following issues:

  • Cracks or missing pieces in the masonry of the chimney

  • Creosote buildup in the chimney, which is a black, tar-like substance

  • Cracks, stains, or scorch marks in the firebox

  • Water stains in or around the fireplace

  • A broken or stuck damper

Costs depend on material type, labor, chimney requirements, and structural reinforcements.

Wood is classified as either hardwood or softwood. For firewood, hardwoods are generally the best choice as they tend to burn longer, hotter, and produce less smoke than softwoods. Recommended hardwoods include oak, hickory, maple, cherry, ash, beech, birch, elm, and walnut. Oak is a particularly good option as it's widely available, slow-burning, and doesn't produce much smoke or sparks. Some woods, like oak, hickory, and cherry, also emit a pleasant scent. It is best to avoid softwoods such as eucalyptus, poplar, and willow, as they create a lot of smoke and have a high moisture content that makes them difficult to light and burn efficiently.

Gas, electric, and inductive. Technically speaking, inductive stoves also fall under the electric stove category. However, they use electromagnetic energy to turn the cookware itself into a heat source instead of heating the burner to heat the cookware. As a result, they ensure precise temperature control, which is often the biggest complaint from people switching from gas to electric.

While hardwoods are the best woods to burn, a few types of woods should be avoided when burning. Wood that has not had time to season, or “green wood,” should be avoided. The extra water in the wood makes it smoke horribly, which is not a quality you want. Additionally, it’s best to avoid any wood that is manufactured or has been treated, including coated or sealed wood, painted wood, or pressure-treated wood. These woods have chemicals that will be released into your air when burned and can cause health problems.
