Santa may like to come down your chimney, but something more costly is going up: heat!
Although your chimney probably has a working damper, it's unlikely to be airtight. Poke your hand up inside the flue and you'll probably feel the draft. A majority of damping systems in fireplaces do not adequately seal off air infiltration from outside
Masonry retrofits can be costly and chimney caps are cumbersome during fireplace season, many homeowners may opt for fitted glass fireplace. Some homeowners also leverage their fireplace by installing a heat exchanger, insert or woodstove to bring more heat into the room. Either solution can save you money and keep your heat where you want it during the cold winter months: in your home!
