HY-C Smoke Guard for 28.5 to 48-Inch by 4-Inch Fireplaces, Black Powder Coat

Product Information

Wood fireplaces produce smoke as a matter of course; use our wide product selection to ensure this smoke is directed away from your room and, instead, filtered through your chimney, protecting your air quality and your hearth leisure.

Accordingly, you authorize us to disclose any and all information about you to law enforcement or other governmental official as we deem necessary or appropriate with any investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, piracy, or other unlawful activity that is illegal and that may expose us to legal liability. An experienced chimney technician from a good chimney company will be able to tell you if that would be the solution to your smoking problem. Based on that math, you should figure exactly how much the opening will be sized down using each guard.Regular chimney maintenance, including the removal of creosote buildup, is essential to prevent smoky fireplaces and ensure the safe operation of your fireplace.

Our Smoke Guard is used to reduce the size of your fireplace opening, which helps contain backdrafts and better control the flow of heat. Once there, the water will lower the temperature of the air in the firebox and impede its ability to rise, weakening the draft to potentially cause back-puffing.This rectangular grate supplies air from the outdoors to the fire, balancing indoor-outdoor air pressure and encouraging fire by-products to escape the flue. This is the first possibility to explore if you have a tightly-insulated house, an air exchange system, or exhaust fans in operation. However, in a house with negative air pressure—usually newer, energy-efficient homes that are well-sealed with weather stripping or caulking—more air enters the home than exits it, so outside air pressure is higher than that indoors.
