Burner is old and beyond repair and we want to take it out and replace with a simple and quick to put heat into the room Electric Fire.
I've done all types of diy but this is a first and I would welcome any guidance please on the order of work etc.
We're in a bungalow so I can cap off the flue outside without any probs hopefully, but its the flue onto the top of the burner i'm unsure about.
The burner is in a fireplace with a register plate above.
If it was installed correctly, should the flue be supported inside the chimney or would it be "supported" at all? Its got a removable collar round it just below the register plate.
Two pics attached of burner in-situ and any guidance on how it "should" have been installed will give me an idea on what to remove first.
Thank you in advance for any help.
