In America, they build fireplaces like this in their house and it ends up being a non-wood burning and just a fake one. Most of the time you are a criminal if its actually a wood burning one.Why are they like this?
they are a fake people, dishonest tacky rejectsmake cardboard houses with placeholder fireplaces
>>220694097Open fireplaces like that have been illegal (in new buildings) here for like two decades, probably because they are really bad for your health.
>>220694097Most of these were real fireplaces that have been closed because they don't want to pay someone to clean out all the soot and inspect their chimneys. New builds don't have these they use gas fireplaces
>>220694158pretty sure they are banned because they are not efficient heaters. If it wouldnt cause an ape out the EU would've most likely banned fireplaces already
>>220694398>gas fireplacesGAY
>>220694398my dad says butane is a bastard gas
Performative country where everything is fake, starting from your behavior.
>>220694097To be fair open fire places like that are very inefficient and also smoky and should only used for rare occasions anyway.For regular use you want a sealed oven(not sure about the english name) like this. But I think there are also inserts for fire places like that to convert them.>>220694398Is that really such a big deal in America? Here most houses get visited by a chimney sweeper regulary, I don't think it's that expensive.
>>220696696are Austrian fire places always that thin (meaning they barely have any mass to collect heat energy)
>>220696835No that's just a random shitty one. The one that's in my house is covered with heavy stone plates.
>>220694097Everything about Amerikkka is fake
>>220694097>Most of the time you are a criminal if its actually a wood burning one.You can get a wood-burning one but the construction codes are much more stringent than if you don't. Fake fireplaces can just have a metal flue with wood framing, while real wood-burning ones require a ceramic flue and brick construction, which is more expensive. t. has a wood-burning fireplace.
>>220694158>probably because they are really bad for your healthThey are?
>>220699767he probably means that the air flow will push smoke inside the house more as compared to ones that arent open
