Q: Does a fireplace make home insurance more expensive?

• <div><p>Wood-burning fireplaces typically make homeowners insurance more expensive, simply because they increase the risk for a fire in your home. Gas and electric inserts are less likely to bring up your insurance rates, but you should always speak with your agent to understand how installing any type of fireplace will affect your premiums. </p></div>

Q: Where can I buy replacement stove parts?

• <div><p>You can find replacement stove parts for popular brands at local hardware stores or major retailers. However, you might find the best deal by directly buying online from the manufacturer. While there are some universal parts, the manufacturer can also help you find parts that are specific to your stove&rsquo;s make and model.</p></div>

Q: What is a fireplace with no chimney called?

• <div><p>A fireplace that doesn&rsquo;t require a chimney is simply called a chimneyless fireplace. Don&rsquo;t confuse these with ventless fireplaces, however. There are some fireplaces that require ventilation via a system of pipes, not a chimney. More specifically, the fireplace in question will likely be called by its name, such as electric, ethanol, or balanced flue.</p></div>

Q: Do all chimneys need a damper?

• <div><p>No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.</p></div>
