Q: What is the disadvantage of a wood furnace?

• <div><p>One disadvantage of a wood furnace is that you need a constant supply of wood to run it. Even if you have a good amount of wood on your property (or have another way to get affordable wood), you&rsquo;ll still need to chop it, store it, and re-fuel your furnace with it to keep your house heated. </p></div>

Q: Can you burn wood filled with sap?

• <div><p>Sap, despite its stickiness, is primarily made of water and is responsible for wood being &ldquo;green&rdquo; when it&rsquo;s first cut. Green wood doesn&rsquo;t burn very easily and will snap and crackle a lot, not ideal for a fire pit or fireplace. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s best to let fresh, sap-filled wood season or dry out for at least a season before you start burning.</p></div>

Q: Why doesn’t my chimney flue close?

• <div><p>If you haven&rsquo;t had your chimney cleaned in some time, soot and grime can build up, making it difficult for the lever to release to close the flue. When this happens, locate the lever and clean it thoroughly. If this doesn&rsquo;t help, consult with a fireplace repair pro to examine it for you.</p></div>

Q: Do all pellet stoves need to be vented outside?

• <div><p>Burning wood and wood products such as pellets create carbon monoxide that&rsquo;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: How do I maintain a stove?

• <div><p>To maintain a stove, clean the stove, chimney, or vent regularly. You should also use seasoned wood or pellets. Schedule an annual professional inspection to ensure safety.</p></div>

Express Sunrooms delivered on all their promises. They demolished our existing covered patio without requiring any out-of-pocket expenses from us, and we didn't have to pay until the job was completed to our satisfaction. We absolutely love our new covered patio and screen enclosure!

They rebuilt the well house better than I had imagined. It cost a little more due to me not having the right stuff, but it looks better than I had thought it would. Will call them for my next project.

"I wasn’t sure what needed to be done at first, I thought there might be some serious repairs required because it had been a long time since any maintenance was done. Sam and his team were veryyyyyy incredibly professional and took the time to thoroughly inspect everything and explain the situation clearly. They didn’t try to upsell me or push unnecessary work, which I really appreciated. It turned out that all my chimney needed was a good cleaning, and they got it done efficiently and left everything neat and tidy. Their honesty, transparency, and quality service really stood out, and I feel confident knowing my chimney is in good shape now. Thanks a lot!!!"
