• <div><p>Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees.

Q: Do all chimneys need a damper?

• <div><p>No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.</p></div>

Q: Will my chimney have air vents?

• <div><p>Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-hvac-damper.htm">Dampers are</a> metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you&rsquo;ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it&rsquo;s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever. </p></div>
