What are the building codes for a fireplace mantel?

• <div><p>There are fire codes for a fireplace mantel made of wood or other combustible material. The mantel must be mounted at least six inches away from the fireplace opening on all sides with a non-combustible material—like stone or brick—installed between the mantel and fireplace. Building codes and regulations will vary based on your location, so before beginning the project, research the requirements in your area.</p></div>

Do fireplace repair companies need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Certain fireplace repairs will require that your contractor is licensed, including anything that involves moving, installing, or repairing gas lines. In that case, your professional will need to be a certified plumber. You can use Angi’s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">licensing lookup tool</a> to confirm that the company you’re hiring is properly licensed. Most states don’t have specific license requirements for other fireplace repairs, but most demand at least a general contractor’s license. It’s also a good idea to look for companies certified by the National Fireplace Institute, as those pros tend to be more qualified to carry out the repair.</p></div>

Do all pellet stoves need to be vented outside?

• <div><p>Burning wood and wood products such as pellets create carbon monoxide that’s poisonous to humans and pets. Pellet stoves need to vent to the outside through an approved vent or chimney to expel the exhaust. </p></div>

Q: What repairs are frequently needed for a non-gas pre-fabricated fireplace unit?

• <div><p>Cracked panels, worn-out seals, faulty dampers, and firebrick damage often need professional attention.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to put in a gas fireplace?

• <div><p>Yes, it can be worth installing a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/gas-fireplace-guide.htm">gas fireplace</a>, depending on your home heating needs. The cost to install a gas fireplace can be much lower than the cost to install a comparable wood-burning fireplace. The convenience of starting a fire with the flip of a switch and turning it off just as quickly makes a gas fireplace a big time saver over starting and maintaining a wood-fueled fire. A gas fireplace also does not require ash cleanup or frequent chimney cleaning to remove creosote and other buildup that can lead to chimney fires. Gas fireplaces burn and heat much more cleanly than wood fireplaces.</p></div>
