My Log Burner...

[Stretch]

<snip>

That looks really fantastic. Can I ask how much it cost to get the chimney lined?

 

[Mr.E.]

I put in a new stove with a back boiler included a month or 2 back ( replaced a standard stove ) and got mine lined, iirc it was £30 per metre.

 

[Stretch]

Did you install the lining yourself?

The lighting in the alcove looks brilliant - very nice job indeed

Little update hearth was fitted today, plasterer will be in this week, and hopefully the fire will arrive in the next few days.

The fire was like Spit's:

Awesome. Got mine on today, toasty warm. I have to say the fire from Vesta has been superb so far.

 

[Goberpiles316]

Plaster was put on today with the fire boards painting the inside bit tomorrow and fire gets fitted on Monday afternoon.

Had a change of deco.

Burner gets though logs at an alarming rate so been down B&Q and got some bags of smokeless coal (buy 2 get third free) amazing stuff burns for 12 hours with two refills of burner and its a nice steady heat, logs just get to hot.

Very impressive zuludawn, quite like the dark coloured wall, blends in nicely. Love the rounded passage way too.

Had mine going pretty much every night since late October. Pictured is burning a huge bit of elm (found about 8 standing dead tree's). I think it measured about 16.5cm diameter, I had to take the metal slat out the front to get it in.

Hoping to have one of these in my new house as perhaps a little more efficient than an open fire

We're very tempted by one of these, new house and were just about to remove the old boiler/heating system. It's an old back boiler (Baxi Bermuda) but I'm not sure if there was an actual fireplace there beforehand tho.

There is what appears to be a full size chimney tho, do they all need lined or if its beeen used before owuld it be ok without it?

Zuludawn do you have a link to the one in your image? Thanks

This is where i had mine from they supply many other shops with Log Burners too. If you have a 7 inch clay lined chimney you may be ok without a liner, if not you need a liner which can be £650.00 plus fitting extra.

We are going to fit a log burner in our bungalow. We had one in our last house. Cant wait!

 

[~Divine~Wind~]

Am i right in thinking that the liner is just the bendy looking aluminium tubey thing?

Check all those complex tech words out lol

 

[Spit]

Yep. Vermiculite can also be added which is what I had done.

-10 outside. Bring it on. Hot porridge and a nice fire at 8.30am on a Saturday morning sorts that out

 

[Shimmyhill]

Mine is a work in progress....

 

[fobose]

Lol Spit, sitting in shorts?? What stove are you going for Shimmyhill?

Still waiting to see an update from Goberpiles..

 

[Shimmyhill]

Going to look at a Clearview Pionner 400 today - my current fave but Tracy hasn't seen it yet!

It kicks some heat out!! Only a 4kw stove but shorts are essential.
