Solution: Gradually close the air control mechanism in order to keep the flue temperature within the comfort zone, between 250 and 475oF (150 to 250oC). If you do not have a chimney thermometer and would like to get one, visit your local Osburn dealer. Solution: Replace the gasket using a genuine OSBURN adhesive and gasket kit. Please consult our accessories sections. Solution: Put less wood into the fireplace. The fireplace will not produce as much heat and will not heat as long.

Why doesn't my fireplace produce enough heat?

Foyers Cadieux Heating Services Gatineau Aylmer Outaouais Fi...
Solution: Use smaller pieces of wood and place them to allow proper air circulation between the logs. The same weight of wood cut in many small pieces will produce more heat than fewer, larger logs. Only add big logs when you have a good bed of red embers. Logs with a diameter exceeding 6 inches (153 mm) should always be split. Avoid stacking logs to the top of the fireplace. Solution #1: In many cases, a weak draft is simply due to insufficient heat in the exhaust system.

Will the heat from the fireplace harm the plasma TV?

Plasma Television FAQ
There are a few precautions to take before implementing this TV application. First, take a thermometer and tape it to the wall above the mantel (where the plasma TV will be placed). Then and build a fire, let it roar while. Check the thermometer. If the temperature is above 90 degrees then the area is receiving too much heat - either escaping from the front of the fireplace and rising up the face, or radiating through the chimney to warm the outside wall.

Will a blower increase the heat output of our fireplace and can it be added later?

FAQ - Questions about Fireplaces, Woodstoves, Mantels, etc.
Yes. Aside from the fact that all of our fireplaces radiate heat from their fronts, there is still heat that can be withdrawn from the fireplace. Using the blower increases the airflow thereby maximizing the heat being conducted from the back side of the fireplace. Adding a fan is easily done if 110 power is hooked up to the electrical box inside the unit. If power is not already at the fireplace, it still may be possible but may be more costly.

Will gas logs in my wood burning fireplace provide heat?

Northwest Stoves Ltd. - Frequently Asked Questions
Operating gas logs in a fireplace can be similar to burning wood in the fireplace. Yes you will receive some heat, but it is impossible to predict how much. Gas logs retrofitted to existing fireplaces are primarily for aesthetic benefit. They look great, provide a large yellow-orange flame and are not particularly efficient. If heat is your primary motive for retrofitting your fireplace you should consider a gas fireplace insert. Either way, you'll have something easy to use and maintain.

What size of gas logs can I install into my Heatilator or Heat-N-Glo wood burning fireplace?

FAQ
You will need to consult the operating guide for your particular fireplace model. If you use another manufacturer's gas logs, you need to maintain the clearances they specify. You can only install vented gas logs in our wood burning fireplaces. No. Installing vent-free (room vented) gas logs into our fireplaces presents a potential safety hazard as these fireplaces have not been tested or listed by UL or AGA for these applications.

What about heat?

Muskeget FAQ
There is an excellent wood stove with a not-so-excellent chimney. The problem was that the chimney had a good sized crack in it, which we repaired with aluminum foil!
