Fireplace for a home built in 1880

I have a great tenant that has been wonderful. They are asking to get the non-working fireplace working for the winter in Cleveland, OH. Does anyone have a vendor or experience with this? Also curious on any experiences dealing with this - thanks in advance!

    Most landlords that I know won’t allow working fireplaces, the liability is big.  I agree with @Scott Mac that you should check with your insurance company and make sure your covered for that.  Last thing is that it can cause soot in the unit.  One possible alternative would a digital insert?
