Hey All, just stumble across this site. Lots of great stuff here, I'm sure I'll learn a lot. I am a novice at all of this fireplace stuff but we are thinking of putting one in our house. I am basically wondering if its a big deal to have a fireplace put into an existing house that has no chase/chimney. We would like to use it as a primary heat source. We are looking at a high efficiency EPA approved woodburning fireplace to heat 3200sq ft. Thanks for the help.
I should probably add the house is less than 10 yrs old. We live out in ths country with no close neighbors and nearly no building codes so there should be no problems there.
