Fire places were used to heat the house in the winter. It does get cold in Fl. during the winter months.

Believe it or not but during the winter months it can get real cold depending where you live in Florida. People tend to think it's tropical weather year round but the State of Florida is big with at least 3 different planting zones with occasional freezing in some parts. When the weather forecast a cold front with Northern winds...it gets really dry with no humidity and after living a while here your blood get thin and you get cold easily.
