Q: How do I get my bioethanol fireplace to run the longest?

• <div><p>A sneaky but important element to how long your new fireplace runs is choosing the right burner size. Avoid choosing a bioethanol fireplace with a small burner (less than two gallons) and opt for one that holds between two to four gallons for a longer burn time or else you&rsquo;ll be stuck frequently refilling your fireplace.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain a stove?

• <div><p>To maintain a stove, clean the stove, chimney, or vent regularly. You should also use seasoned wood or pellets. Schedule an annual professional inspection to ensure safety.</p></div>

Q: Why does my fireplace glass turn black so fast?

• <div><p>If there&rsquo;s a draft within your fireplace, it can lead to a weakening of its flame. And when the fire burns the wood, it won&rsquo;t burn effectively, resulting in a build up of soot and smoke. If you notice this happening, you&rsquo;ll want to inspect the glass to see where the draft is getting in. You can also hire a fireplace repair pro to do the work for you. </p></div>

Q: Is it OK not to have a chimney liner?

• <div><p>A chimney without a liner is not recommended. Chimney liners protect the surrounding structure from heat, reducing the risk of fire or structural damage. Just as important, liners prevent carbon monoxide and other toxic gases from leaking into your abode by guiding smoke and gases out more effectively. Remember, installing a liner ensures safety and extends the life of your chimney.</p></div>

Q: How do I know what type of fireplace I currently have?

• <div><p>If you have a gas fireplace, you should be able to see a vent exiting the fireplace directly to the outside of your home. You may also see gas lines leading to the fireplace. If the firebox in the fireplace is completely empty, it&rsquo;s a wood-burning fireplace. There should be no burners or igniters in the fireplace.</p></div>
