It is not recommended to burn sassafras wood in a fireplace or stove, as it can release harmful chemicals when burned. These chemicals can be harmful to both human health and the environment. It is best to choose a different type of wood for burning in your fireplace.
A combustible fireplace is designed to burn actual wood or other combustible materials, requiring a chimney for ventilation. A noncombustible fireplace uses electricity or gas for heating, eliminating the need for a chimney.
When the gas is lit in a fireplace, the flames generate heat that radiates outwards. Some of this heat warms the materials around the fireplace, including the mantel, causing it to become hot. The mantel is designed to withstand a certain amount of heat, but it is important to ensure it is not excessively hot to prevent any safety hazards.
Yes, you can burn charcoal in a fireplace. However, it may not produce as much heat as wood due to lower energy density, and charcoal may also release carbon monoxide, so proper ventilation is important. Additionally, charcoal generates more ash than wood, so regular cleaning of the fireplace is needed.
