Hi all,
I need to hire a gasman to remove a couple of gas heaters and a plumber friend says that, if I don't also have the associated flues removed, a damp problem may occur. However, the flat is on the second floor and so outside access is a problem.
I think the walls are cavity. If so, would it be possible to cut the flue pipe twice from the inside of the flue pipe thus effectively removing the water conduit?
Of course, the exterior part of the flue would remain in place. Would this cause a problem at all?
Could this be a solution?
Chris
