Did your region outlaw fireplaces?

Wow… No, not that I’m aware. I can’t imagine a lot of people taking to that kind of law. Not that it isn’t necessarily a good thing. It’s just so ingrained in a lot of people that I’m sure they wouldn’t stop. Does that mean that you couldn’t have bonfires or anything, too? What about when you’re camping?

I think over here you’re allowed a certain amount of logs or a certain weight of wood when you go camping in a provincial park or something. I’m not sure about outdoors camping on your own property though.

Bernalillo County has no burn nights when air quality is poor. Homes with no central heating are exempted. This has been going on for a number of years now.

people do that??

Only those fake electric ones.Oops, I thought you said religion.

In the Seattle area you can have as many fireplaces as you want and can use them most of the time but if there is a hint of an inversion layer they ban all burning. Indoor and outdoor. The exception, of course, isif the fireplace is the only source of heart,

In the part of New Mexico where I live, Sandoval County, there are no restrictions.

In my fathers house there are many mansions each one has a fire proof floor. – Bob Dylan.

Never heard of banning fireplaces.

When I lived in New Orleans (many years ago), there was a ban on fireplaces, at least in the French Quarter. I think that had more to do with the fire hazard of old buildings than anything else.

Now, I live in a suburb of Denver. There are days when fires are prohibited due to air quality.

Hwaaa? Crazy talk. Maybe we could burn the people who wrote the report?
It’s perfectly fine here.
