Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Cold Air and Smoke Entering Living Area
At times, while woods are burning in a fireplace it may be noticed that a huge amount of smoke and cold air enters the room through the fireplace thus making the room smoky enough causing intoxication. The smoke can be a possible result of the house being too tight or small in size. The rooms in the house are not airy enough to allow proper ventilation of the house, thus causing the outer air and smoke to make an entry. The fireplace is not getting enough combustion air and is thus creating a negative pressure across the rooms. This problem is most likely to occur in newly built homes.

One possible solution to this problem is to open a door or window near the fireplace while operating it thus allowing enough ventilation. It is also advisable to check for cracks or vents in the fireplace and to repair immediately. Some of the fireplaces work fine if you keep fire going. However, let this burn low, and starts to smoke. Also, you will see that this kind of the fireplace is smoky at the startup, like discussed elsewhere. But seriously, read on suppose your fireplace is fine during the high fire, and smokes when it burns low. At times it is because of the design problem that will be solved easily. In many cases, it's quite serious, as well as difficult to remedy. There're many possible design problems, which can cause the smoky endings. Some are simple to check out. Others need skills of the chimney professional. Here're a few to look at:

Cold fire place flue by the design

Suppose masonry fireplace chimney gets built on outside of house, or not up middle of your house, chimney structure, and thus the flue, sometimes will cool fast as fire burns low. Particularly on the windy and rainy days, when the weather states draw heat from masonry structure rapidly, the cooling will create reverse draft problem: The cold air sinks & smoke sinks with this right in your living room. It's simple for the masons to build the chimneys on outside of house, after house structure is mainly completed. However, venting specialists suggest building chimneys up inside of house structure, in order to avoid the cold flue problems. At times you will alleviate this kind of problem with good set of glass fireplace doors. Since fire burns low, then close doors to keep smoke from entering your home. It is the cheapest and easiest possible solution and first choice before you spend any money on the structural changes. The glass doors are very useful, also for the non- problematic fireplaces, as you may close doors before going to the bed as well as prevent the heat loss up the flue. Keep in mind, you cannot close the damper until the fire is completely out which is generally one day later. An open damper is just like the open window.
