Question about English (US)
do you use "furnace" as "fireplace"?
I found a character who used "furnace" as "fireplace", but when I looked up the word, furnace seems to hardly mean "fireplace" looking at the picture.
did I hear wrong or furnace can be mean fireplace?

Your picture is a furnace. This is what a fireplace looks like.
But there's a thing called a Furnace Fireplace (Decorative Furnace) so it just looks like a fireplace when it's not. Maybe that's what the character was talking about?
