Any wood will cause resins to build up in the chimney. Have it cleaned once per year, in the fall before you start using it. Call a chimney sweep. Pine is not the best wood for heating but it looks nice. If you really want some heat, hedge is a good wood if you can get it where you are. Apple, walnut hackberry, or locust are good too. Make sure you have a good screen or doors on the fireplace. Hedge can thow a lot of sparks.
