I am getting smoke out of the front of the fireplace.
The fireplace needs to be "Seasoned". The best way to stop this is to take off the top cap when starting the fire to create a better draft. This will stop the smoke from coming out the front.
Can I burn in the snow or rain?
We have tested the fireplace with 10 inches of snow built up on the surface and burned until the snow was melted off, with no adverse reactions. Rain will not affect the fireplace.
If a part gets damaged can I get a replacement that will fit properly?
Replacement parts are quality and fit inspected. Most parts are kept in stock.
Is there any maintenance required on the fireplace?
When ash builds up on the fire chamber floor, use a shovel or dust pan to clean them out. If soot should stain the exterior surface, a vinegar / water solution and rinse should clean it up.
