Understanding Your Fireplace System
Each component of your chimney and fireplace plays a specific role in safe, efficient operation. Here's what each part does:
- Chimney The vertical structure that channels smoke and combustion gases safely outside your home.
- Flue The inner lining or passage within the chimney through which smoke travels.
- Fireplace The firebox and surrounding structure where combustion occurs.
- Hearth The floor extension of the fireplace, providing a non-combustible surface.
- Smoke Path The route smoke takes from the firebox through the flue and out the chimney.
