When I moved into my bungalow I removed an old gas fire smashed out the fireback and bricked up the opening (with airbrick),
However the wife now wants an open fire,
if I remove my brickwork do I need to install a new fireback or can I use just the brick opening. ?
Also the pot on the chimneystack has been replaced with an aluminium vent (I assume for the old gas fire) will it be an easy job to replace it with a new pot?
Is there anything else I should consider???
