They say fireplaces are loving, but they are entirely more trouble than they are worth.
When my child plus her partner purchased their home, they chose one that had a fireplace.
They lived in the southeast, plus I couldn’t understand why a fireplace was so important.
My child told me that fireplaces are loving, plus she thought it was perfect in the room where they had localed it. There were no windows except for the skylight, a big furry carpet in front of the fireplace, plus a huge sofa. When she sent me pictures, I had to disclose that the space was loving, plus really well used, but the temperatures seldom got out of the 50s, even at night. They moved in right before Thanksgiving plus invited the entire family over for dinner. When my wife started poking around the fireplace, she told our child that they got ripped off. She said the fireplace was nothing more than a showpiece, plus they would not even be able to use a gas or electric insert in the fireplace. My child looked stunned, plus her partner was ready to argue. She told my wife that she wasn’t a fireplace expert, plus all because she worked with HVAC did not provide him the right to provide a professional opinion. She already disliked my daughter’s partner plus shrugged plus told her that from now on she would keep her mouth shut. My child asked me what I thought about the fireplace, plus I told her it was charming. However, I knew what my wife was talking about when I got down on my haunches plus showed her how the back wall was fake tile plus they connected it to the wallboard in the hallway.
