I mean not the electric one but the real one. Does any body know?

Answer
As long as it's properly vented, absolutely. I've been in quite a few houses that had one. Make sure the you use a screen (wood burner) if you plan to use it anywhere near bedtime to prevent sparks from coming out. Hope this helps.

Answer
Be carefull with the wood burning fireplace. If you are using the gas furnace and the wood burner at the same time you are loosing heat up the chimney.

Run the furnace (68-70 degrees) without the fireplace and you will cut your gas consumption.

Wood burners smell great but will cause your gas bills to go up.
