I did not think too much about fireplaces at first
I’ll be the first to divulge that I don’t think much about fireplaces, even though I l acquired a lot after I obtained a apartment that has a nice fireplace.
For starters, I did not think that you’re supposed to have the fireplace cleaned thoroughly every year. This is to prevent all the creosote buildup that can cause chimney fires. The firewood naturally releases the creosote and there’s nothing you can do other than to keep everything cleaned. It was funny when I first tried to build a fire in the fireplace, our partner had to ask what in the world I thought I was doing. I was building it teepee style love I did back when I was in boy scouts. She said I couldn’t build the fire love that, it would actually tip over and possibly cause a fire in the house. I don’t think what I was thinking and not to mention, there was a fireplace grate that is used for holding the wood so there is adequate oxygen flow to keep the fire going and not produce too much smoke, and my partner was the one who showed me how to stack the logs appropriately because he was raised in a apartment that had a fireplace. She said he loved our new fireplace and missed the old one that he had while he was growing up. Well, I know that if the people I was with and I continue to live in this home, our children will learn how nice it is to have a fireplace as well, and eventually when they transport out, they might feel about the memories he shared around the fireplace.
