This a neat gadget Gordon made for our fireplace that does not have a flue.
So he made an airtight gadget so the cold does not come in. This house is 100 years old so why didn't someone think of this. Gordon wants me to put some beads hanging down so that when we use it we will not FORGET to take the gadget out.
