Victorian Chimney stack question

[Mike2007]

My home and my neighbour's flues terminate as 10 chimney pots on a combined stack. My question is, would all my flueways be separate up to the stack. As I want one flue swept and any other won't be done.
I would not want debris falling down onto my gas back-boiler!

Thanks
Mike

How many fireplaces have you?

building standards in the Bahamas are likely to be very different from the UK. This is a UK website so I recommend you ask locally.

A local chimney-sweep will usually know a lot about how local houses were built.

We have two fireplaces now, one front room, one back (but many pots).
We are located in sunny cumbria.

There were probably 5 fireplaces originally but each would have their own flue. Front room, back room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms. There is little likelyhood of any shared flue but your local chimney sweep will advise you best.
