I'll be putting in a fireplace insert in my fireplace. I had one in there before but wasnt impressed with it soI sold it and will try another. When I had the other in there I noticed that the other side of the fireplace chimney, where the kitchen pantry is located, it was warm inside the pantry when using the woodstove. I want to avoid that since I store food in the pantry and I don't want temperature fluctuations.
Anyway, whats my best bet to keep the heat off of the brick so it wont transfer over to the pantry?
Yes, the insert will have a insulated liner. So the heat should only be coming from the insert itself.
