Hello,

I would like to get some advice about the ventilation for the chimney. Many thanks in advance!

Our chimney stack was removed by the neighbours as part of their big project. The proposed plan we received was to remove it to the roof level, cap it and install some vents. After noticing that there are 2 vent tiles on our roof, our neighbour decided to reduce the chimney below the roof line and made good the roof (we were not aware of this change until they finished and had to ask them explicitly). The argument from them is that the vent tiles on our roof provide adequate ventilation for both our loft and the remaining chimney (we have one vent in the chimney breast).

We wonder whether this change will cause any potential issues for us (such as damp caused by warm air condensation etc).

Any comments are much appreciated :)

Will make no difference whatsoever.

I love a nice chimney tho. I would not let my neighbour remove my chimney! - but each to their own.
