Q: Should a chimney flue be open or closed?

• <div><p>The damper, located just above the firebox, can open or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-close-chimney-flue.htm">close the chimney flue</a>. The damper should remain closed unless there&rsquo;s a fire burning in the fireplace. Closing the damper prevents energy loss through the chimney and cold air from seeping into the home during the winter. Opening the damper helps maintain airflow when there is a fire and prevents smoke and gases from venting into the house.</p></div>

Q: What are the cleanest woods to burn in a fireplace?

• <div><p>Well-seasoned hardwoods like oak, maple, hickory, and ash are the cleanest woods to burn in a fireplace. When properly dried, these woods have low moisture content, allowing them to burn hotter and produce less smoke, which minimizes creosote buildup. Ensure the wood is seasoned for at least six months for optimal burning.</p></div>

Q: Will my chimney have air vents?

• <div><p>Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-hvac-damper.htm">Dampers are</a> metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you&rsquo;ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it&rsquo;s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain my chimney or fireplace?

• <div><p>Regular inspections, using dry wood, and installing chimney caps help maintain efficiency and safety.</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>
