Q: Are bioethanol fireplaces safe?

• <div><p>Bioethanol fireplaces are safe when users follow the instructions and maintain the fireplace. Ethanol is flammable, however, and should be kept away from flammable surfaces, children, and pets.</p></div>

Q: Does an outdoor fireplace need a chimney liner?

• <div><p>A chimney liner isn&rsquo;t required for an outdoor fireplace; you don&rsquo;t technically need one if the masonry chimney uses the proper dimensions and is built to code. However, a chimney liner does serve as a protective coating for the flue. Adding a liner could improve performance, safety, and durability. In short, while not necessary, it wouldn&rsquo;t hurt. </p></div>

Q: How big should a fire pit be?

• <div><p>How big a fire pit should be depends on how many people you want to get around it on a regular basis, and how big your space is. The average fire pit size is between 36 and 44 inches. However, if you regularly host big gatherings and have the appropriate outdoor space, you can go as big as 72 inches.</p></div>

Q: Where can I buy replacement stove parts?

• <div><p>You can find replacement stove parts for popular brands at local hardware stores or major retailers. However, you might find the best deal by directly buying online from the manufacturer. While there are some universal parts, the manufacturer can also help you find parts that are specific to your stove&rsquo;s make and model.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if my chimney is safe?

• <div><p>There are a few things you can look out for to ensure your chimney is safe to use. Check for the following issues:</p><ul><li><p>Cracks or missing pieces in the masonry of the chimney</p></li><li><p>Creosote buildup in the chimney, which is a black, tar-like substance</p></li><li><p>Cracks, stains, or scorch marks in the firebox</p></li><li><p>Water stains in or around the fireplace</p></li><li><p>A broken or stuck damper</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

"I highly recommend Jeff and Pacific Fireside. Jeff was on time for the scheduled inspection of my chimney which I have not used in years. During the inspection he found some erosion due to the years of dormancy which he was able to explain to me in a way a non-expert would understand and thoroughly outlined his very fair pricing. He was back with the necessary parts a few days later and was able to complete the repairs in just one day!"
