Q: Can you burn wood that has oak wilt?

Q: Can you have a fire indoors without a chimney?

• <div><p>The short answer is yes, but the longer answer is more complex. Unless the fireplace is ventless by design, you&rsquo;ll need some type of exhaust pipe system to safely send fumes and other harmful byproducts out of the house. Even then, ventless fireplaces are not always permitted because they do keep the byproducts inside of your house. Ventless fireplaces are safest when installed in spaces that are themselves well-ventilated, like large rooms with lots of windows.</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!
