Q: How far should an outdoor wood furnace be from the house?

• <div><p>Your state, city, or even homeowners insurance company may have requirements on how far the outdoor wood furnace should be from the house, so be sure to abide by those regulations. In general, you should install an outdoor wood furnace or boiler as few as 30 feet or as much as 500 feet from the house or any other building.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you don't clean your chimney?

• <div><p>Neglecting to clean your chimney can lead to serious safety hazards. A primary risk is the buildup of creosote, a highly flammable substance that can ignite and cause a dangerous chimney fire. This buildup can also create blockages in the flue, resulting in poor venting of smoke, soot, and toxic gases like carbon monoxide, which can then enter your home and create dangerously poor indoor air quality. Additionally, creosote is acidic and can damage the chimney's mortar and metal components over time, potentially allowing smoke to leak into your house. To prevent these issues, it is essential to schedule an annual chimney cleaning with a professional.</p></div>

Q: Do you open a flue with a gas fireplace?

• <div><p>Yes, if your gas fireplace has a flue, you typically need to open it when using the fireplace. Although gas fireplaces don&rsquo;t produce the type of smoke and soot that wood-burning ones do, they still release combustion gasses like carbon monoxide. Opening the flue ensures these gasses safely exit your home through the chimney. Not all <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-a-gas-fireplace-need-a-chimney.htm">gas fireplaces need a chimney</a>, however. Always check the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions for your specific gas fireplace model, as some newer models may have different ventilation requirements. </p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement?

• <div><p>Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.</p></div>

Q: Can you burn wood that has oak wilt?

• <div><p>You can burn wood with oak wilt, as heat from the fire destroys the fungus, and smoke won&rsquo;t threaten <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-healthy-tree.htm">healthy trees</a>. However, wood of unknown origin should be burned during the dormant season&mdash;do not store wood in the warmer months for the winter season. If you harvest oak, let it dry in the sun before transporting it elsewhere.</p></div>
