Q: What stops water going down a chimney?

• <div><p>Your chimney needs a structurally sound chimney cap, protective lining, damper, chimney flashing, and brick and mortar to prevent water from goind down your chimney. A pro can help you identify where the issue is so that you can stop water from coming down the smoke shaft, through your damper, and into your home.</p></div>

Q: Are new wood stoves better than old?

• <div><p>In some aspects, yes, new wood stoves are better than old ones. For example, today&rsquo;s EPA emission limits for wood-burning stoves are much lower than they were several decades ago. Stoves that meet these stricter standards produce less air pollution, reduce fire risks, and decrease your risk of inhaling harmful particles.</p></div>

Q: Should you block both the top and bottom of your chimney?

• <div><p>You should never block both the top and bottom of your chimney. Proper airflow is essential because the temperature inside the chimney will still fluctuate as your house warms and cools. Moisture can build up without ventilation, leading to dampness in your walls over time. Blocking the top prevents debris and animals from entering, but the chimney still needs air circulation to avoid condensation issues. Allowing the chimney to breathe maintains the health of your home and prevents long-term damage.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of a ventless fireplace?

• <div><p>The primary disadvantage of a ventless fireplace is that it doesn&rsquo;t have an exterior venting system. This means that the byproducts from combustion are emitted into your home, which raises some safety concerns. In addition, ventless gas fireplaces produce moisture as they burn&mdash;and if there&rsquo;s no ventilation, you could end up with a mold problem.</p></div>

Q: How much does stove cleaning and inspection cost?
