Q: Who installs fireplaces?

• <div><p>Knowing who to hire to install your fireplace is important when it comes to having a safe place to burn a fire in your home. The best person to contact for installing fireplaces is a mason or general contractor who has a <a href="https://www.nficertified.org/public/">National Fireplace Institute</a> (NFI) specialist certification.

Q: Can I build a fire pit on my patio?

• <div><p>You can safely build a fire pit on your patio as long as you use porous, fire-resistant pavers or a fire pit mat over existing pavers. Otherwise, you&rsquo;ll need to have exposed ground beneath your pit. You&rsquo;ll also need to make sure the location for the fire pit is far enough away from your house and any other nearby structures.</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>

Q: Can you burn wood filled with sap?

• <div><p>Sap, despite its stickiness, is primarily made of water and is responsible for wood being &ldquo;green&rdquo; when it&rsquo;s first cut. Green wood doesn&rsquo;t burn very easily and will snap and crackle a lot, not ideal for a fire pit or fireplace. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s best to let fresh, sap-filled wood season or dry out for at least a season before you start burning.</p></div>

Q: Can I repair a gas fireplace myself?

• <div><p>DIY is not recommended due to safety risks. Hire professionals for proper diagnosis and repair.</p></div>
