Agree with visit to Fireside Living, you should not get smoke back no matter plain fireplace, wood stove insert or pellet stove. The only exception might be very briefly on initial start of fireplace or insert with a cold flue.

At home we started with plain fireplace then later wood stove insert and now a pellet stove (Harman from Fireside living). At camp we started with a plain fireplace and now a wood stove insert. Never had a smoke in the room issue.
Thanks do you smell the burning a lot less also?
