Flueless gas fire advice

thethreeofus

I am looking into the option of a flueless gas fire to avoid moving, there is a gas pipe but the chimney is closed off and i may have to repace the flue etc
The room sizes are two rooms with a living and dining room adjacent and no doors.
The room where the potential fire would go is
431cm approx length and 355cm approx wide and the adjacent room is
254cm length and 279 cm wide approx.
woud i be able to get a flueless fire in those sized rooms does anyne know, it is too cold in the winter.

I would not use one if I were you. When gas burns, it produces a lot of water vapour which, in the absence of a flue, then condenses on the walls and windows. The colder it is outside, the worse the condensation will be on the inside.

If you have suitable external wall then a through-the-wall flued wall gas heater can be very effective. Eg. Baxi Brazilia, Robinson Willey Bantam, or Drugasar. They are room sealed for safety.
