Title: Reckon if I was in Minnesota/Wisconsin, be more worth it but I was a bachelor
Post by: theking on February 09, 2021, 07:48:20 PM
..when I bought my first brand new home in the 90s. I thought it would be great to bring a girl home and just chill and sip some wine by the fireplace but the weather was pretty mild overall so only I've only used the fireplaces a handful of times through those decades. I've used the one in the bedroom more than the one in the living room because it's more convenient for my date and me.

The smoke could become issues over time.

Yes it can and it can also affect air quality..Some counties in California already banned wood burning fireplace...

You folks in MN may have restrictions on wood stove but not fireplace so you're still safe  ???:

With the 2020 standard now in effect, new wood stoves that are not 2020 certified can no longer be sold or installed in Minnesota. The standards don't affect fireplaces or wood heating systems already in use.
