Is it possible to put a wood stove in the place of a non-working old fireplace?
I own a home that was built in 1915 and the wood burning stove isnt working any longer. Can I put a more effecient iron stove in its place and still be able to use the original smoke stack? Any suggestions on websites for products like this?
It would be best if you located a fireplace shop that sells stoves, inserts etc. Find one that also does installations.
They can measure the opening and determine the correcf size needed and also check the chimney. It may be necessary to use a chimney liner, depending on the condition of the chimney and the building codes in your area.
It is much safer using a company that understands freplaces, stoves, installation procedures, ventiing issues and local codes and regulations.
Improperly installed stoves can cause fire, carbon monoxide and other deadly issues.
Good luck
