I really would appreciate any advice pro's/cons
Sorry to post again


Hi Folks

I would like some advice on *Fluless gas fires.

Have read the brochure correctly that they can go almost anywhere that
you want to put them in the brochure it shows one in front of a glass
door (B&Q "The Fire place" page 32 Lascar Flueless stove).

The flueless gas fire would be ideal for me as there is no chimney
just a flat wall and I wouldn't want to have a chimney built specially
for a normal gas fire.

I have only the one outside wall and suppose I could have a balanced
flue but that would mean that the *nice little youngsters in this area
would enjoy stuffing the flue with garbage as they have done with our
cooker hood outlet.

So is there anything that I should know without me getting a survey
(£40) done by B&Q but the £40 would be returnable if we got the fire
from them.

To be truthful I don't want someone coming along who could be one of
the cowboy outfits in the area,who as I have been told are next to
useless.

The position I would want it is only about 2 feet from the main gas
supply to the property.

Tia

Maybe he's referring to you calling rubbish garbage.

As to flueless fires the combustion products have to go somewhere so if you
do fit one expect lots of CO2 and H2O in the room the CO2 will diminish as
oxygen (or rather ambient air) is allowed to swirl around the fire (via
ventilation/draughts)but the H2O will form as condensate on EVERYTHING in
the room so would strongly suggest you don't use one in a room were you
value fixtures and fittings
