woodburning yes, but too cheap to get it cleaned yearly and a fire hazard when not cleaned, so we do the candles in the fireplace when we have company, really beautiful.

Wood burning fireplace

We have a wood burning fireplace; and we love the warmth it creates - so much more penetrating than other heat!
And it just gives a special touch to our home - winter or summer - burning or not burning.
We have a small acreage and plenty of wood.

We use ours ALL the time during the winter. We have a ventless gas unit. Living in South Carolina has some very warm days. In addition, there are equally cool or cold mornings. We run the firplace for about and hour and we get nice and warm. Our cat dominates the front of the unit.

We never use it. I have heard woodburning fireplaces can be bad for your lungs. Not sure if that is true or not.

I've never heard that before. I guess if the smoke came out and filled the room that's a possibility, but if the fireplace is working correctly that shouldn't happen.

There's nothing nicer than a roaring fire on a cold night.

fireplace

We have two wood-burning stoves. The one on the main floor is connected into the heating ducts so heat from that stove circulates through out the house with the flick of a switch. If we want the heat concentrated in the family room we just keep the blower fan on. We use the second stove to heat the lower level if we have guests.

Our largest gas bill in the last 6 years was $50. We own or have access to hundreds of acres to get our wood from. My husband loves to chop it instead of having to go to a gym for a work-out. Buying wood to burn might get expensive.

You guessed it. We don't live at the North Pole, but you can see it from here.(old joke)

Fireplace - but not used

We have a fireplace, but, it's hidden behind our couch! We never use it. I have heard woodburning fireplaces can be bad for your lungs. Not sure if that is true or not.

Fireplace

When we moved to North Florida from South Florida, a must on the list for our new home was a fireplace. We use it often in the wintertime.
