Can Gas Fireboxes burn Wood also - Local Hardware Clerk says yes - contradicting what I read on-line
By: hmlanderos | 15-11-2008
I'm building a new home, and my frieplace is designed to burn wood. But I do not want wood. I don't want to take any chances with carbon monoxide, and the other mess with dealing with wood. So I asked my contractor to go the gas route, which, after checking with my local HD Hardware, was told that a firebox they have for gas, can actually hold wood also, as long as we have additional vents going out of the wall, as well as the normal chimney. I hope this works out, because I want to maintain the ability of the fireplace to be used for wood later in the future, if some day I sell, and new owners prefer wood. A Gas Fire Box holding wood contradicts what I read in some comments. Does anyone have an answer. I'm thinking that at worst..in the future.. to convert to woodburning...new owner may just need to change firebox ?
