Steps for Building a Fire Inside Your House in Valheim

In Valheim, to build a fire indoors without proper ventilation is dangerous. Without an opening, the fumes They pile up, and your health takes a turn for the worse.

The technique involves placing the fire on natural soil raised, with an opening in the roof directly above it.

Here are the steps to light a fire indoors risk-free:

1. Remove the floor at the selected location by prying it up with a hammer.

2. Equip the hoe, right-click, and select the option Raising the Floor Level.

3. Click once to make a small mound.
4. If the ground is too high, right-click to reopen the menu and select « Level » to adjust the height.
5. Place your campfire directly on this raised natural ground: the game won't let you place a fire on a wooden floor.

6. Leave a roof opening just above the fire to let the smoke escape into the sky.
7. Add some furniture or a kitchen around it to block access and avoid getting burned unnecessarily.

If you're having trouble raising or opening the roof, there's a workaround: place the fire just outside, next to a wall. You get to enjoy part of the heat without dealing with the smoke, almost like a chimney outdoors.

This indoor fireplace boosts your comfort level, which extends the duration of the "Rested" bonus (improved health and stamina regeneration).

A bed should also be near a fire so you can sleep in it: place it near the fireplace. A bed near the fireplace, it's also the foundation of any sturdy Viking camp before setting out explore new biomes.

Note that this tip about raising the floor under the fireplace may vary depending on the update deployed by Iron Gate. Test it on your version before building anything on top of it.
