Q: How does chimney removal impact the value of my home?

• <div><p>Replacing older chimneys or fireplaces, like wood-burning stoves, with something more eco-friendly can actually increase the value of your home. Some homeowners opt to remove chimneys as they pursue LEED certification, which may also increase the value of your home. But in general, many potential buyers actually look for operational fireplaces in homes, so removing a chimney and fireplace could decrease your home&rsquo;s value by up to $5,000.</p></div>

Q: What are common gas fireplace issues?

• <div><p>Common problems include pilot light failure, clogged burners, and faulty ignition systems. Regular maintenance prevents many issues.</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: Why is it important for buyers to ask when a chimney or fireplace was last inspected?

• <div><p>Even if a homebuyer has no intention of using the fireplace installed in the home they&rsquo;re thinking of buying, it&rsquo;s vital to know when the fireplace and chimney were last inspected. Aside from learning that it can operate properly, homebuyers will want to know that the structures themselves are sound and won&rsquo;t affect the integrity of the surrounding home. With full knowledge, homebuyers can then make plans for any necessary repairs before they move in. </p></div>

Q: What is the usual duration for fixing a gas pre-fabricated fireplace unit?

• <div><p>Repairs typically take 1-3 hours, depending on the issue's complexity.</p></div>
