Hi,
We bought a 1954 house in Seattle. There is a built in fireplace in the kitchen - designed for cooking. it is taller than it is wide. I am dying to use it but have been told that I should install a fan in the chimney if I intend to use it for cooking. I'm wondering whether this is true or not. When I built a fire, it did seem that smoke was wafting out of the fireplace.
Also, i'm wondering if I should install doors on it so I can reach a higher temperature and use it for pizza and bread. I also want to roast and grill in it.
So any help would be appreciated. Thanks
