How to Choose the Right Height for an on the Wall Fireplace

This could lead to fire in the home and the efficiency of the fireplace will be greatly reduced.

To avoid this, select an open fireplace with a narrow opening for the firebox or a chimney venting system that is high. This will ensure that the heat is efficiently and safely dissipated.

Another thing to consider is the purpose for which the room will be used for. If it will be predominantly used for socialising, watching television and relaxing, a bigger fireplace is a great option.
