    Or perhaps someone feels happy with their buy & wants to spread the word.

    Is it fair to accuse someone of advertising, on a first & only post? I think not.

    I suspect Twiglet may have had a point. Read his post again and look at the name of the shop he bought his stove from!

    Eakers... are you advertising?

    Did you hit the spam button??
  • It's definitely the cowl. It isn't wise to use the stove until the cowl is removed as carbon monoxide given off by a multi fuel stove is hundreds of times higher than a gas fire. Get it sorted asap......only a 10 min job for a pro. £100ish to supply and fit a proper multi fuel cowl.............better than a trip in a coffin.

    Why the poster has a username and profile to web site they are spamming. They may as well have a piece of paper on the forehead saying I am a spammer, need I say more

    Eakers has spammed before I seem to recall reporting them and had the posts removed. Looks like they have had it done again. They should be banned

    Thanks to later posters who agreed an inappropriate post had been displayed. I would not have the confidence to hit the spam button and apologise if my reply was out of line.

    Oh wow, this thread has made fascinating reading!

    I've a victorian terraced 3 bed house with very high ceilings, just screaming out for a stove, but before I get myself too excited I have a major problem to overcome and wondered if anyone else has had to deal with this?

    My chimney is blocked, I think with concrete. Has anyone had their chimney re-opened and a stove installed? I'm wondering roughly how much I'd need to budget for this and how much building work it involves? I realise each house is different but if it is always a very expensive job I'll have to bite the bullet, stop dreaming now and explore other options. I have central heating but it needs a lot of work doing to make it efficient - the need for complete replacement hasn't been ruled out yet.

    This is a project I'm thinking about for next winter, so if it is do-able I'm thinking of having the work done next summer.
    My first reply was witty and intellectual but I lost it so you got this one instead :D
