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

Product Information

That difference in the size of that space allows more room and more time for excess smoke to collect before it is drawn up the chimney, keeping the smoke in the fireplace and not allowing it to escape into the room. It is available in black and brass and can be any easy, inexpensive solution for smoking fireplace problems.

Bad or deteriorating mortar may exhibit signs such as crumbling, cracking, or missing sections between bricks or stones. I still have some occasional smoke roll back into the room, and I'm all but convinced that if I had the 6" model this wouldn't be the case.

They are available in a wide range of widths, allowing you to choose the perfect fit for your fireplace.

If you have a vented gas log set with a detectable odor, we would recommend having a local qualified service technician service the unit and check for issues. Our checkout process uses industry standard TLS (Transport Layer Security) technology to encrypt and scramble all personal information including your name, address, and credit card information so that it may not be read by others as it travels over the Internet. For a DIY installation, start by measuring the width of your fireplace opening to determine the appropriate size of the smoke guard.Unfortunately, in some cases the opening of the fireplace was made too big for the size of the flue, which reduces the force of the updraft, especially at the start of a new fire. If you’re cautious, it’s also a good preventative measure, designed to keep irritating, dangerous smoke out of your home. A coat of heat resistant paint to complement the fireplace surround and mantle provides the finishing touch.
