  Many of the fireplaces in San Diego have too tall of an opening, which allows smoke and gases to have a "choice" of going up the chimney or back into the living area when having a fire. 

Adding a metal plate called a "smoke guard" to the top of the fireplace opening can fix the smoking problem.

They come in 4", 6", and 8" widths.  Because of their black color, they are almost invisible when looking at the fireplace.  You can make your own smoke guard to see if it will work for you by taping foil to the top of the fireplace opening at the widths mentioned above.  If this works, give us a call to install one for you.
