    wood / log burners

    No, I meant that the waste gas from the log burner which is potentially dangerous so the positioning of the flue is very important and the details are shown on the trustcorgi website. I quite agree with you over wanting a simple installation process though I think it's actually simpler to...

    wood / log burners

    Thanks for the recommendation, I've taken a look at the site but no prices are provided, it looks like a very modern design which is what I'm looking for - also liked the look of the 525 multi-fuel/woodburning stove. I've also been looking over the Morso 6140 but it seems hellish expensive...

    wood / log burners

    Hi everyone and thanks for the information and keep it coming. Am sure many more people will be throwing out their gas and electric fires and replacing them with a log burner if the prices keep rising. I'm interested in the fact that the French government are giving rebates on these log...

    wood / log burners

    jlacd, heat rises so any heat generated by any fire will rise. A flue is only a posh name for a tube to exhaust the hot gases. There are safety regulations in place for distance and height of exhaust stack or chimney from your property (call it what you will). Take a look at...

    wood / log burners

    Muggles, thanks for your tip but I'm more into SEO so thought a seperate forum would benefit the forum ranking on search engine ranking. As to costs, I cannot believe a flue liner costs £50 per metre. A flue is just an exhaust pipe in layman terms. 5" is 125mm and I'm not aware of any normal...

    Brand new property

    Personally I would recommend a wired system because they are far less tempremental than wireless systems. Most wired systems are wired in from above so it makes no difference whether you have carpets installed or not. As to recommended alarm installers - avoid the MAJOR installers...

    wood / log burners

    I couldn't find a suitable category named ' Heating' on this forum which is surprising considering how bloody cold it is living here in the UK - tip to the forum administrator - 'Heating' would be good!!! So having looked at the increasing bills I keep receiving from those banker gas and...

    how to make/fit registration plate for stove

    Seems to me the whole purpose of the 'registration plate' is to blank off the gap between the flue (pipe) and the chimney - perhaps a better description would be a blanking plate with a flue hole in it. The website link posted shows two pics, one of which shows a plate with an access hole for...

    Cost and recommend supplier

    Just spotted your thread and thought I would add my 10p worth - only because I was in the local B & Q depot today buying loft insulation (3 rolls for £9) though I can't see this offer on their website. EDIT: Just read the info on the roll, it's 'DIY Top-up loft roll' 200mm thick, R value 4.5...
