Product Information

Both chimney damper and flue are related to each other. The flue keeps the ventilation process, and the process can be opened or closed with a damper. Ease of installation: buy one that you know will be easy to install, some plugs require special tools or a professional to install them, but most can be easily installed by most homeowners.

However, you can also find some ‘plug in and go’ type electric fire suites. These simply come straight out of the box in one piece and can be plugged directly into the wall for immediate use. Place the fireplace into the surround in accordance with the instructions in the appliance manual. Depending on the weight of the appliance, you might need more than one person. For safety reasons, you will need to secure the fireplace with screws to ensure it stays in place. When a wood fire burns, it produces smoke and gases, such as carbon monoxide. Opening the damper (if you have one) before lighting the fire creates a draft up the chimney that draws the smoke and gases up through the flue and out of your home. When the fireplace is not in use, the damper should be closed to prevent drafts; however, many homeowners commonly forget to do so.
