Has anyone got a wood burner in a new build that doesn't have a chimney?
Yep. Firebelly (made in Yorkshire, no less). Twin wall looks a bit industrial in our sitting room. Needed to have a bend in the flue to exit it near the apex of the roof.
I'll do some pics some time.
Lit it this evening for the second time this autumn. Toasty!
these guys are moving premises at the end of the year & should have some bargain stoves available from their old showroom in the run up to xmas 🙂

We where quoted £1500 all in to have a log burner installed. That included the flu, hearth etc.
Quick Sit-rep.
They came round last night to measure up..
Their orgional £1500 has now doubled.. but £600 of that was for scaffolding.. 🙁
Manchester based - Bill Taylor is all you need, fountain of stove knowledge and cheap too! Just keep him topped up with coffee.

Really?
Im in Northwich - not [i]that[/i] far from Manchester.. you got any more details??
Ditto

Scaffolding? Do you live in a normal house or a castle? My guy just used ladders. Happy to give you his number Teeto as he's very good and fairly close (Tarporley) - BUT I think he now only fits Clearview stoves as he's fed up with the hassle associated with other makes (apparently).

Sadly, a pretty standard 1890's Town house..But it has quite a high chimney stack

They are supposed to use scaffolding although some people will just use a rope around the chimney
Not sure who is liable if they fall off and cripple themselves.
Is that a slate roof? If so you don't want anyone walking on it unless they know what they are doing as slates break very easily.
Not heplful to the OP but here's a gratuitous pic from yesterday afternoon.
Owner - We've been told the stove you put in for us is dangerous. The flue pipe is 40mm from wooden beam but should be at least 450mm. We'd like the beam replaced with slate please.
Plumber - I'm not a builder, that's not my department.
Owner - But you put it there!
Plumber - Nothing to do with me.
Owner - Errr, OK.
Still, what's the worst that could happen eh?

that might be a little close.......
doesn't it smoke when the wood burner gets going? as its going to be ****ing hot
It would be more than smoking if it was there much longer! Pyrolysis ahoy
Think it's Bury, not 100%, i'll dig out a number. We've used him 3 times now, usually done in a day - full job too.
Anything wrong with this woodburner? Seems very cheap! [url= http://www.stoveworlduk.co.uk/contemporary-stoves?product_id=120 ]Linky[/url]

Interested to hear any reviews as my fiancé has just had a look and likes them, the one you link to is an 11kW one though which is a big wood burner!!!
That stove looks ok to me. It meets the relevant eu regs - should be fine.
Just need to check whether it needs a structural hearth - it's no clear from th description, bu I'd guess you do.
That's a 'small' flue for an 11kw stove. It doesn't mention adjustable door hinges (important to help keep door sealed - especially as the door looks like its steel and could warp) or feet. I like the steel body construction but there will be a reason why they're so cheap.
My living/dining room is 8x4.5m and is open to a pitched roof ceiling, so I think I'll need a big one! I have a hearth with a large cast iron gas fire with a balanced flue, the existing flue comes out of the rear of the fire, through the wall. It would be nice to use this existing opening, alternatively I can take the flue straight up through the roof, as there isn't an existing chimney. The gas fire is too expensive to run as we're on LPG.
Run the flue inside and gain the extra heat from that, just use twin wall near the top where it goes into the roof.
