I live in a 2000 house, so plasterboard, batten, block, empty cavity, brick.
I'm thinking of getting a log burner in the front room, which will exit through the wall to the side of the house, so far so good...
Directly above the front room is my bedroom, which has an emperor size waterbed. I'm not sure on weight but it's going to be around 900KG in total.
Now here comes my worry, when the bricks get removed to fit the double flue is that going to weaken the area? Last thing I want is the log burner to be installed then the house falls apart
