"The repair person called to say he was on his way and arrived promptly after the phone call. On his arrival, I explained the problem and also told him that another company had attempted to fix the gas logs but said the unit needed to be replaced. It is emtombed in brick. He thoroughly examined the gas logs and determined it was $41 part that needed to be replaced. His honest evaluation and repair was awesome! I cannot thank him enough. It is worth having a second opinion if the first recommendation involves thousands of dollars."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

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.

An outdoor wood furnace might be worth it, depending on your situation. For example, if you can easily (and affordably) acquire wood to burn, then an outside furnace could make sense. Investing in an outdoor furnace might also be worth it if you live in a rural area without a reliable energy source.

The answer can vary widely based on a home's age and design. As with any type of remodeling project, assume that every structure is load-bearing until confirming otherwise with a structural engineer. Almost all modern homes have chimneys that are fully independent from the rest of the home's framing. As a result, they don't bear any load beyond their own weight. However, many historic homes built prior to the 1900s contain load-bearing chimneys that tie into the surrounding roof and floor joists. If possible, use a home's blueprints or look for chimney connections that indicate load-bearing qualities to get your answer.

The best type of firewood is a locally-sourced hardwood such as oak. While it’s not the least expensive option, oak is found in most parts of the country and doesn't smoke or spark when burned. Other common slow-burning hardwoods, such as hickory, walnut, cherry, and maple, also make excellent firewood.

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.
