What Is the Smoke Chamber and Why Does It Matter
The smoke chamber is the funnel-shaped space between the top of the firebox and the bottom of the flue liner. Its function is to compress the rising combustion gases from the wide firebox opening into the narrower flue opening without creating turbulence. When the smoke chamber is rough, stepped, or damaged, it creates turbulence that causes smoke to back up into the room.

Parging applies a smooth coat of refractory mortar to the interior surfaces of the smoke chamber. This creates a smooth, even surface that allows combustion gases to flow smoothly into the flue. NFPA 211 specifically requires smoke chambers to have smooth interior surfaces. Parging also protects the smoke chamber masonry from the high temperatures and combustion byproducts it encounters during fireplace operation.

Smoke chamber repair is indicated when you experience chronic smoke problems that cannot be resolved by damper adjustment or chimney cleaning, when inspection reveals that the smoke chamber interior is rough or stepped, after a chimney fire that may have damaged the smoke chamber, or when upgrading an older fireplace to meet current NFPA 211 safety standards.
