I currently have a bog-standard gas fire in my lounge, I would like to install either a wood-burning or multifuel fireplace
My chimney has been fitted with what looks like a 5" metal flue liner - so basically my question is can I replace my gas fire with a wood burning or multifuel fire without having any work done to the existing flue installation?
I know it will have to be installed an certified by a HETAS engineer, this is no problem but before I start getting people round, firstly is this possible to do with my current Flue installation? if so with a minimal amount of work?
Also I am based in Nuneaton, Warwickshire if anyone has any recommendations of anyone local who can advise / quote.
Thanks in advance
