[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a wood burning fireplace in our last house. We used it probably 3 times in 6 years. Our living room was small and it made the room REALLY hot, plus I hated cleaning up the ashes after the fire. I also found that the chimney made the living room really drafty and we ended up paying $1500 to install custom glass fireplace doors to cut down on the cold. That said, I love the smell of wood-burning fireplaces when I am taking a walk outside! Our new house has a gas fireplace. We haven't used it yet, but I'm hoping to use it this winter. One unexpected downside was my 4 year old son asking me yesterday how Santa Clause was going to get into our new house to deliver presents when we don't have a chimney anymore. Hadn't thought about that one...[/quote] Santa is an issue with the wood burning fireplaces as well. DS asked us how Santa was going to bring the presents down the chimney with the fire lit. "Are we going to burn Santa?" :) [/quote]
