Over $100 per square foot, so over $200 to replace the glass.</p> <p>I'm wondering if it's dangerous to use the fireplace with the cracked glass. It's a wood-burning fireplace.</p> http://sinkoverflow.net/questions/7/how-often-should-i-have-my-chimney-cleaned How often should I have my chimney cleaned? stevex 2009-10-19T00:06:29Z 2009-10-22T15:17:18Z <p>Is this something I should do every year?
