Hi
I had some damage to the top if my chimney which I've now repaired and terminated the flexi liner from my wood burner properly at the top.
I am sure there is no damage to the flexi liner, it was just a lot of small bits of cement and dusty cr@p that fell down and I believe is now probably sat on top of the register plate above the stove, as some dust has come through into the fireplace round the edges of the plate.
Question is do I need to worry about this? If so I am assuming I need to somehow remove this plate and remove all the debris, I can see it's got some screw fixings holding it on, but I can't see how I'd move it down as there's a collar round the vertical flue pipe coming up from the stove that seems to be tight up against underneath the plate (see pic).
Any clue what to do here, do I need to remove the stove?
Not sure whether it's OK to have bits of brick/mortar/old ash debris in contact with the bottom of the flue liner (I'm assuming possible fire risk hence this post)
any advice appreciated......
Cheers
John
