FIREPLACE QUESTION
WHAT IS THIS?
It slides left and right a hair, seemingly opening and closing a vent. But there's no exhaust there, it's just some kind of compartment. No clue what it does. Open when fire or closed when fire? Anyone?

Is there a 2nd vent above the chimney? if yes then this chimney has a direct vent system. If not then I don't know 😉

Nothing above the chimney but sky (haha). No second vent above fireplace opening. 🤔
Ok so not what I thought. A direct vent system inhales fresh air from the room, circulates it around the chimney to exhaust warm air from a 2nd vent. Nifty system.
Ah, smart!
