How Does a Fireplace Work?

Fireplaces work by creating a non-combustible environment, where a fire can be started, built, and maintained, and works in tandem with your chimney. In a masonry fireplace, the chimney is the passageway for smoke and gasses to be removed safely from your home. The part that connects the chimney to the firebox is called the smoke chamber, the smoke chamber is built like an upside-down funnel and is the transition from a wide opening in the firebox to the narrower opening of the chimney.

A fire is built in the inner hearth. You may notice that the back wall in your hearth is angled slightly forward before it meets the damper, this angle allows heat to be pushed out into the home while the smoke and gasses rise into the chimney, thereby heating your home safely. In a prefabricated fireplace, there is no smoke chamber the flue comes directly out of the firebox and goes straight up to the roof the damper is located at the throat of the firebox to allow for ventilation and an updraft when in use.

Cracked Chimney Crown?

Chimney crowns are the solid covers that sit on the highest points of a chimney. They are entirely strong and perform well for quite a long time. In the end, be that as it may, even the best-built structures can start to fall flat. There are numerous reasons why cracks form in crowns and realizing these reasons is one step toward shielding your chimney crown from requiring fixes in any case. Chimneys are continually exposed to the elements and damage from snow,...

11 Things You Should Never Burn in Your Fireplace

The warm, romantic crackle of a fireplace is a part of the cooler months many people look forward to. The fireplace brings holiday comfort for many people, but it can also be dangerous if not used properly.

Why Use Smoktite?

Smoke chamber reclamation can be an exceptionally included activity, requiring the removal of bricks and the damper frame, and the hand-use of refractory cement to the whole region to smooth and secure it. A smooth surface permits gas to go through the smoke chamber into the vent, without their stream being hampered by spiked drops. This is where Smoktite comes in, what is Smoktite you ask?
