Can I put a pellet stove in a corner?

• <div><p>Yes, you can put a freestanding one in a corner if you’re tight on space. Because pellet stoves don’t get as hot as other types of wood stoves, there only needs to be 3 inches of clearance from the wall on each side. Placing it in a corner should not impact the ventilation—you’ll still need to follow safety precautions by not installing too close to a window. Typically, it’s 4 feet from a window or 18 inches if the stove uses an external air source for combustion. Always check the owner’s manual for specific instructions.</p></div>

How do I choose an EPA-approved wood fireplace insert?

• <div><p>You can research your fireplace insert or retrofit by checking out the <a href="https://cfpub.epa.gov/oarweb/woodstove/index.cfm?fuseaction=app.about">EPA wood stove database.</a> The database includes information, such as a model's emission rate, efficiency, and carbon dioxide output.</p></div>

Q: What are the cons of fireplace inserts?

• <div><p>While fireplace inserts can help you make more use of your fireplace, they do come with some drawbacks. Some cons of fireplace inserts include the sometimes high cost of the insert and installation, the ongoing maintenance to buy fuel and clean the fireplace insert, and the efficiency. Fireplace inserts can operate more efficiently than an open fireplace, but they may not heat your home as evenly as an HVAC system.</p></div>

Q: What can I use to burn garden waste?

• <div><p>To burn garden waste, you can use a dug-out burn pit lined with stone or brick, a burn barrel, or a garden incinerator. If using a burn barrel, make sure it's made entirely of metal and properly equipped with screened vents and a metal top screen. Garden incinerators are designed for waste burning and should be operated according to the manufacturer's instructions. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to replace a chimney?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-should-it-cost-replace-and-rebuild-masonry-chimney.htm">cost to replace a chimney</a> is about $10,000 on average and can cost up to $15,000, depending on the size, accessibility, materials, and extent of the replacement. Sometimes tearing the chimney down to the roof line and rebuilding it is an option. But if the chimney's internal structure deteriorates badly enough, a complete demolition down to the fireplace or the foundation may be necessary.</p></div>
