When you have a fireplace in your game room it gives
it a certain look and feel that can compliment your billiard table.
The fireplace mantle
will set the mood of the room. If you have a heavy mantle it can set
a very sophisticated mood of the room.
Here are some
fireplace safety tips:
-
Have your chimney
inspected annually for damage and obstructions.
-
Clean the chimney
regularly to avoid buildup, also known as creosote, that could
ignite your roof.
-
Be sure to use a
screen in front of your fireplace large enough to catch rolling
logs or sparks.
-
Don't use flammable
liquids to start the fire.
-
Don't use excessive
amounts of paper to build a fire. It's possible to ignite soot
in the chimney by over-building the fire.
-
Never burn charcoal
in your fireplace. Burning charcoal gives off deadly amounts of
carbon monoxide.
-
Be sure no
flammable materials hang down from or decorate your mantel. A
spark from your fireplace could ignite these materials and cause
a fire.
-
Never close your
damper with hot ashes in the fireplace. A closed damper can help
hot ashes build up heat, causing the fire to flare up and ignite
your room.
-
Store cool ashes in
a tightly sealed metal container.
