How much does this cost ?
Things not to burn in your fireplace:
- NEVER burn any plastic, rubber or anything that has been painted. This can produce all sorts of toxic fumes.
- NEVER burn any fabric or textile material in your fireplace. This can produce a lot of smoke and increase creosote deposits in the chimney, causing a risk of chimney fires. Furthermore, some synthetic materials, such as nylon and polyester, can create toxic fumes if burnt.
- NEVER burn charcoal in your fireplace. Charcoal is for outdoor use only (i.e. barbecues). Burning charcoal can produce carbon monoxide, which can be extremely dangerous if it builds up in a confined space.
- Don't burn real Christmas trees. The wood hasn't been properly seasoned, and so burning a Christmas tree can cause creosote deposits in your chimney, creating a fire hazard.
- Make sure your wood is dry. Wet wood burns less efficiently, increasing the risk of creosote deposits.
