How do you install a lock top fireplace damper?

fireplace
kta kta questioned:


We recently bought a home and it had a stove in the fireplace. We didn’t want the stove so we removed it. The problem is that it doesn’t look like there is a damper in the fireplace. I heard the cheapest way to install a new one is to use a lock top damper. Any thoughts? Also, need to get rid of the stove. It’s in decent shape. Any thoughts on how to get rid of it?- it’s extremely heavy. Thanks!

    A lock top damper is installed on top of your chimley and keeps the air/wind from comming down your chimney and smelling the room or house like soot. Some are permanent and some can be lifted to burn again a fire. Most fireplaces when built have a damper installed in the up pipe to regulate the draft .
    The ancient stove is a desired item by some. I searched a long time before finding one that would fit inside my fireplace and now it heats my home unlike the fireplace alone.
    Place the fireplace for sale locally and someone will come and pick it up and remove it for you.
