Do i remove flue liner from chimney completey out to install a gas effect flame fire?
The flue liner should be removed and the catchment area formed and sealed,if a combustion box is fitted then you could re use the liner,but it should be renewed if a box is fitted. Ultimately you shouldn’t be doing it yourself as there are rules and regulations to follow.A corgi registered fitter to do the job for you is what is rec’d.Poorly installed gas fires are the single biggest cause of carbon monoxide poisoning Note to paul,if you read the last sentence correctly then you will notice that i didn’t mention the word death,CO poisoning doesn’t always kill. I was only relaying a statement i read in corgi’s installer magazine.Mr smarty pants.
