I currently have an outset gas fire that we want to replace.
Inset fires seem cheaper that outset ones, but am I right in thinking that for an inset one you need a fireplace surround?
We don't have a surround at the moment and I thought that with inset fires they can stain your wall black if you don't have a surround.
I would not be fitting the fire myself of course, I just need to know if I need a surround for an outset fire.
Many thanks in advance
