This depends on the age of your house and the condition of your chimney.
Houses built before 1966 with wood or coal chimneys were usually built with a 9″ by 9″ square flues, which enabled a good evacuation of smoke and gases. These chimneys are normally suitable for installing Class 1 or Class 2 fires and stoves without having to install a flue liner, although these days, manufacturers often insist on a flue liner installing in their instructions.
If you believe that your chimney may have deteriorated and needs attention, you should install a flue liner. The condition of your flue will, in most cases, be determined by the Gas Safe or HETAS engineer when they perform a smoke test. Because of both safety and efficiency factors, we will not complete a solid fuel installation without installing a flue liner.
Never take for granted that your flue / chimney is in working order simply because it is there, as, due to the nature of a chimney, most problems and blockages are hidden from view.
Having a flue liner installed means fires and stoves, in general, perform much better. If you are unsure please contact us.
Yes. You can still install a fire or stove, there is a wide range to choose from.
A Balanced Flue Gas Fire or Stove can be fitted to an outside wall. The flue exits through the outside wall using a concentric flue and the stove is sealed from the room in its own casing with a window to display the flame effect. These stoves are also known as “room sealed fires”.
Flueless Fires and Stoves do not have any type of flue installed, instead they have a built in catalytic converter which removes any toxic gasses and only produces water vapour and carbon dioxide instead of the harmful carbon monoxide.
Each flueless appliance has a minimum ventilation requirement determined by the size of the room where it will be fitted; these sizes are usually between 23 and 40 cubic metres.
Modern electric fires and stoves are become increasingly popular as they tend to have very convincing flame effects and are very easy to install, as easy as just plugging it in.
