[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wood. I would never buy a house without a wood-burning fireplace or stove. If you’re burning seasoned hardwood and getting your chimney inspected and cleaned annually, you shouldn’t be smelling smoke in your house. [/quote] I've never been in a house that actually uses a wood fireplace that doesn't smell like smoke. The problem isn't so much when the fire is going. The draft mostly keeps the smell out of the house. The problem is after you let the fire go out, and the stale smell from a previous fire is much worse than the smell of an active fire. A stove insert with with a tight seal would mitigate that, but that's not what most people with wood-burning fireplaces have.[/quote]
