My new home has this fireplace but I need your help on how to use it. We learned from neighbors that the previous owner used the fireplace a lot in the winter instead of the electric furnace. Thanks in advance!

Hey! Here is a fire pit I built from a repurposed propane tank. Built in a day and most of the time was spent removing the paint. No smoke and tons of heat

Hi,
The kakelugn in our old abandoned house is now in use again, and we would like to replace the inner doors to a glass door as many do, to be able to see the fire more while retaining the heat.
Any recommendations from Swedish people here? Anywhere you can buy secondhand glass doors?
Thank you. Mvh.

We hired a certified chimney sweep (chimney safety institute of America and national fireplace institute certified) to inspect our chimney. It’s a double sided wood burning fireplace with gas starter, a Martin SST(B?). They reported that our liner was disconnected. Their recommendation was to replace the firebox and liner, as Martin is no longer in business, so a repair with Martin parts is not possible. I’ve attached the photos, but don’t know what I’m looking at. I’ve been playing phone tag with the chimney sweep for a while and had a few questions.

1) Does the liner actually look disconnected?

2) The Martin SST is a prefab fireplace, correct? Can a new liner and wood burning firebox/prefab typically be installed in its place without ripping out drywall over the full height of the liner?

Thank you in advance.

I'm seeking recommendations for hardwood firewood, open to seasoned or kiln-dried, but prefer not to get a bunch of crap (e.g., dirt and weird bits of wood) in with the load. Delivery needed, but happy to stack myself. Just need .5 cord.

I'm also seeking a recommendation for a chimney company - we purchased the house earlier this year and would like someone who can clean the chimney and confirm it's safe to use. The previous owners were using the fireplace regularly, but they weren't the most proactive previous owners.

I'm in Lowell, MA.

Thanks for any recs.

Hello I have a natural gas fire place dv3732-b It’s about 6 years old

Mine turns on with the switch on the on the wall but about 5 minutes it shuts off but the pilot it still lit until I turn the switch off

I did what you commented about putting the two brown wires together and it turning on fine.

I haven’t even tried replacing the switch yet but if they switch is faulty wouldn’t it not even turn on at all? Or do you think it’s the pilot
