Q: What are chimney crowns made of?

• <div><p>Chimney crowns may be stone, concrete, or metal but most crowns are made of concrete. It&rsquo;s not recommended to build chimney crowns with mortar (which is different from concrete) due to it&rsquo;s weaker composition (especially when exposed to the outside elements). Most chimney crowns are custom made to fit your home&rsquo;s specific chimney. </p></div>

Q: Can you have a fire indoors without a chimney?

• <div><p>The short answer is yes, but the longer answer is more complex. Unless the fireplace is ventless by design, you&rsquo;ll need some type of exhaust pipe system to safely send fumes and other harmful byproducts out of the house. Even then, ventless fireplaces are not always permitted because they do keep the byproducts inside of your house. Ventless fireplaces are safest when installed in spaces that are themselves well-ventilated, like large rooms with lots of windows.</p></div>

Q: What are the downsides of a gas fireplace?

• <div><p>Some people don&rsquo;t like the look of gas fireplaces since they don&rsquo;t offer the classic charm or appeal of a wood-burning fire. Plus, gas fireplace installation is more expensive than other types of fireplace installations due to the added complexity of working with gas lines. There&rsquo;s also a chance that gas could get into your home, which is a major health and safety risk.</p></div>

Q: Can I use an existing chimney for a wood-burning stove?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use an existing chimney with a wood-burning stove if it meets specific requirements. The stove&rsquo;s vent pipe size must be compatible with the size of your chimney flue. Your contractor can tell you whether your chimney is suitable for installation.</p></div>

Q: Does a gas fireplace add value to your home?

• <div><p>Yes, gas fireplaces can increase your home's value by as much as 12%. They are a sought-after feature because they burn cleaner, provide more warmth, and are more convenient than wood-burning fireplaces. Modern gas inserts can also provide the traditional aesthetic appeal that buyers like. To ensure the highest return on investment, perform regular maintenance and schedule annual professional inspections.</p></div>
