Gas Fires

[craig51]

Hello all,

My first post on here, although I have been lurking around for a while. I intend on having a gas fire installed. Before I waste my time looking etc, do gas fires need a flu??

The only wall that could take one is also my wall of my neighbour, so it wouldnt be possible for a flu!

Thanks.

Although most gas fires require a flue, there are flueless gas fires available. Try Googling on Burley for example.

it may well be a flue (pre cast). but you are very restricted to what you can fit onto these. Unless you have a class 1or a class 2 chimmney you don't have a great deal to choose from. only fan flued and flueless fires really.

B&Q do some flue less gas fires and some times have them on display.

Loads of choice for pre cast flues these days.

Its the flue of choice for the developers who pass shoe boxes off as houses

yep and they all need a minimum off 100cm2 free air to vent them,


and with the ammount of heat they chuck out this will make the room a bit chilly came the winter

what i mean is you can only chose an outset gas fire. providing it has a cooler plate.
