No problem Nakajo. Glad for your input. I really am just looking to see if I can respond to the buyer by saying no certification required as open fireplace not a solid fuel appliance. If not, then we can just negotiate indemnity policy. But just trying to figure out the actual requirement.
Insurance not an issue. UK law says insurers can only deny insurance to the extent the breach related to the loss. So if you had a kitchen fire, they can't deny claim just cos your not used fireplace didn't have certification.
Thanks. Well, it's not really a question I can answer with "I don't know". The question is have you installed a fireplace and when? The answer is yes. The next statement is "tick if you can provide a HETAS certificate".
Ugh. Am selling my house and solicitor asked if I have a HETAS certificate for a fireplace installed in 2009. I paid a high street fireplace shop to install a cast iron insert and slate hearth into an empty fireplace opening in my Victorian terrace. I got a guarantee but it doesn't mention...
