Q: Can you put a TV on a fireplace mantel?

• <div><p>In most cases, you should not put a TV on a fireplace mantel. The minimum width required to put a TV safely on a shelf or mantel is 10 inches, but pre-made mantels are usually too shallow, averaging at only seven inches deep. If you do choose to place a TV above a mantel, it should be mounted to the wall. However, do so cautiously as heat radiating from the fireplace could potentially cause damage to electronics.</p></div>

Q: Can a wood-burning stove be vented through the wall?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to install a wood-burning stove through the wall. The process is similar to venting the stove through the ceiling, but you&rsquo;ll need to be careful of electrical wiring, plumbing, studs, and other potential obstructions in your walls. If you&rsquo;re not comfortable with this type of work, call a professional who installs wood-burning stoves. </p></div>

Q: How long does fireplace installation take?

• <div><p>Most projects take 5-10 days, including foundation work, masonry, and finishing.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of a gas fireplace insert?

• <div><p>For many people, the primary disadvantage of a gas fireplace insert is that it doesn&rsquo;t look or smell like a classic wood-burning fire. Additionally, the labor costs of installing a gas insert are higher than some other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-fireplace-inserts.htm">types of fireplace inserts</a>, including electric and pellet inserts. There are also limitations on where you can install ventless gas fireplaces because they&rsquo;re banned in certain places (including California).</p></div>

Q: How likely is a chimney fire?

• <div><p>Depending on who&rsquo;s doing the estimating, about 22,000 to 25,000 chimney fires happen each year in the United States.
