Garage Log Burner

[IanNE]

I have an attached garage on my house with rooms above, I would like to fit a wood burner in there, would my flue outside need to run to above my existing house roof height?

Is the roof/loft area of your house or any neighboring house, converted to a bedroom or such like and I presume the garage/rooms above roof is lower than the house roof? but by how much...pinenot

Also important is whether it is safe to have an 'open fire' in the garage with its potential for flammable liquids and vehicles with petrol stored in there! I don't think I'd do it.

Only room sealed gas appliances, ie balanced flued, can be installed in a garage unless in a separately sealed and externally ventilated fire resistant enclosure.
