Q: How likely is a chimney fire?

• <div><p>Depending on who&rsquo;s doing the estimating, about 22,000 to 25,000 chimney fires happen each year in the United States. Given the fact that millions of Americans have fireplaces (and chimneys), that means chimney fires aren&rsquo;t exactly common&mdash;but they&rsquo;re not rare, either. Since they&rsquo;re so dangerous, it&rsquo;s important to take precautions to prevent them.</p></div>

Q: How much does a fireplace add to home value?

• <div><p>A fireplace can increase a home's value by as much as 12%, with some reports indicating that homes with fireplaces list for around 13% more than the median sale price. Fireplaces are both functional and aesthetically pleasing, adding a charm that many homebuyers find desirable. The actual return on investment depends on the fireplace's size, type, and material.</p><p>However, a fireplace can detract from a property's value if it is unusable, not up to code, or in need of immediate repairs. The type of fireplace also matters; custom electric fireplaces and inserts can add value, while freestanding units that can be removed have less impact.</p></div>

Q: What is the top cause of house fires?

• <div><p>According to the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA), the leading cause of house fires is cooking accidents, followed by fires started by heating equipment. Electrical issues are the third most common cause of house fires. The best way to keep your home protected is to use caution when cooking and never leave a stove or oven unattended while in use. You can also keep up with chimney cleaning and avoid using space heaters to reduce the risk.</p></div>

Q: What to spray in a fireplace for smell?

• <div><p>When your fireplace is not in use for longer periods of time, such as over the summer, you can keep smells at bay by spraying either a commercial fireplace deodorizing product or a blend of one part distilled white vinegar to one part water around the walls of the fireplace. </p><p>Or, you can place a container of charcoal inside the fireplace to absorb odors. Just be sure to remove it before it&rsquo;s time to start using the fireplace again.</p></div>

Q: Can you burn other materials in a pellet stove?

• <div><p>No. Pellet stoves are specifically designed to burn manufactured wood or biomass pellets. Attempting to burn other materials, such as regular firewood or paper products, can damage the stove, compromise its efficiency, and even pose safety hazards due to inconsistent combustion and increased emissions. It's crucial to follow manufacturer guidelines and only use pellets that are specifically recommended for your pellet stove model to ensure safe and optimal performance over its life span.</p></div>
