Hi,
Recently moved into a 1930s property that has 3 chimneys, all of which have been cut back to below roofline.
The fireplaces have all been blocked up.
Our survey (and other people since) have said we need to install vents to vent the stack. No problem. I'd like the vents installed on the outside of the stack.
My question is that I believe (but not certain) the stacks contain 2 flues (they are pretty wide on the outside of the house - see pic). Does this mean that they need 4 vents, one at the top and bottom of each flue?
Ta,
Ben
