Hey my name is Nathaniel Houck and full transparency is always my goal:\n- I have experience painting, constructing, instillation & sanding.\n- I’m very flexible with dates & any extra work that was not clear to begin with, I am a perfectionist so believe me I care.\n- I am sole proprietor of my company, it is just me so please be understanding.\n- Although I lack any license I have 2 years of experience working by myself.\n- Communication is my top priority so neither of us have to deal with any unwanted surprises so please be open to ask any concerns or logistical questions. \n\nThank you for taking the time out of your day to read through this I hope we can work together soon.

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Pellet stoves are much more energy efficient than traditional fireplaces, and the pellets they burn create fewer emissions, leaving indoor and outdoor air cleaner. Plus, the biomass pellets are made from recycled materials, making them even more eco-friendly. You can also adjust the temperature of a pellet stove and go about most of your day without needing to tend to it.

Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. Dampers are metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you’ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it’s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever. 

There are fire codes for a fireplace mantel made of wood or other combustible material. The mantel must be mounted at least six inches away from the fireplace opening on all sides with a non-combustible material—like stone or brick—installed between the mantel and fireplace. Building codes and regulations will vary based on your location, so before beginning the project, research the requirements in your area.

A 40-pound bag of wood pellets can provide a solid 24 hours or so of burn time, though the exact length may vary. If you’re using your pellet stove as an exclusive heat source during the winter, you’ll need an estimated 100 to 150 of those 40-pound bags, depending on how hot you like to keep your home, its size, the climate, and other factors.

Costs depend on material type, labor, chimney requirements, and structural reinforcements.
