Chimney Balloons

[workerant]

Hello all
After i had finished servicing a gas fire recently the customer mentioned buying a balloon that is fitted inside the chimney to arrest the flow of air going up it. there is a website just google chimney balloon. i was a bit dubious so have asked technical at GSR about what they think. there seems to be little interest in this, however is there a contravention of gas regs here what do you think?

Dont think you should have started this topic as it has now brought it to attention of thousands of others who might think its a good idea without thinking of the consequences.
