"As a fact all home owners know that Chimney sweeps or the chimney companies have the worst reputation of being crooks! No one is going to go up on to the roof to follow the Chimney guy to see what they are doing or if they are even telling you the truth about what's wrong with your chimney. Having said all that, I very highly recommend this company because from the time I made the appointment to the time the work was completed it was a wonderful experience. The cost was most reasonable and most of all very honest:) I say this because I had 7 estimates from different chimney companies for the same work and every one of them had a different price quote and one chimney guy actually went up to the chimney and started pealing the existing clay chimney liner and threw some down the chimney and some on to the lawn just to get a chimney liner work from me. Certified Chimney not only cleaned up the mess and blockage created by the other guy but did the job for less than what the other guy wanted. The work was clean perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better all around work that was done by Certified Chimney people the true professionals:) the work involved placing a double wall stainless steel chimney liner cutting open the wall in the house by the furnace resealing it as well as opening up the brick work on the outside wall of the chimney and finishing the brick and cement work outside. I thank them very much."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

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.

There are six main choices of fireplace inserts: wood-burning, gas, propane, pellet, electric, and coal. Coal fireplace inserts aren’t as popular as they once were because burning coal emits a lot of carbon monoxide. Any fireplace insert will require proper supervision, and it’s a good idea to install a carbon monoxide detector in the room for added safety.

Having a pellet stove can indeed raise your insurance rates since they're a relatively common cause of fires in the home. However, rate increases vary by insurance provider so you should reach out to yours to determine exactly how much your rates might increase with a new pellet stove install.

To reset an electric fireplace, first shut the unit off using the control panel or remote control. Make sure the unit is entirely shut down, then unplug it from the power outlet. Wait five to 10 minutes, then plug the fireplace back in and turn it on. This process should reset the electric fireplace. After resetting, make sure to set the thermostat, timer, and other programmable settings to suit your preferences.

Pellet stoves are designed to run for several hours at a time. Running them for an entire day is not uncommon. More advanced models can run continuously for up to 48 hours, making them ideal if you live in extremely cold conditions and don't want to keep refueling the stove.
