Fireplace help

Hi everyone, so I decided to open up the fireplace in my home. It was closed for at least 25 years and with the newborn having to go through her first winter, I decided to open it up. The dimensions are 435 x 600 x 255 (W x H x D) or 17 x 23.6 x 10 in freedom units. Now I’m worried that the depth is not enough to effectively keep smoke from coming into the house. Any recommendations? P.S. throat is about 100mm /4 inches submitted by /u/Troubled_H20s [link] [comments]
