Why's the flue behind a fire guard?

Neat bit of carpet cutting though!

I'd hazard a guess you'd hang your coat on the flue, at least to keep it warm anyways! lol ... was this the coal bunker job mentioned in the forum a while back? Can't remember who posted! It still looks awfully close to the door mind!!!

How did i do bod?.......:whatchutalkingabout

to be fair the door is getting blocked up later but it still passes i did have to wait a day for them to get back to me , there only point been where the cement is was a grate with holes had to be filled as classed as an air brick, i could of run twin wipe up the wall but they didnt want , as i said door been bricked up and a window put in

It'll look like one of thise vents you see in New York in winter ... *VBS*

Sometimes you got to compramise how it looks to actually "will it function safely", bod! You suplied the custard with what they were after and made sure you're installation was to standard! I'd bet it was a hard call and maybe some loss of sleep along the line eh? :35:

your not kidding diamond , like sll my jobs i probsbly over worry but i must say i like the challenge and how we can bounce ideas off each other on hear.

as much as this bit pains me , when they said caged with a suitable material i nearly walked away i was thinking welding stuff together et , iron gates the lot it was the love slave who said what about an old style fire guard (£2 off car boot) i claim the credit for training him though

I service an old floor standing boiler in Mansfield thats in the cellar, its due to be replaced soon and I have wondered how/what Iam going to do with the flue.
I think i might move the boiler.

just make sure you change that damage flue elbow ,as if it is long flue run will affect the air intake and might lead to AR
