Took my little girl to see Santa today and it ended with him telling a story inside a log cabin that was approximately 3mx3mx2.5m. First thing I noticed when we walked in was a smell of gas! There was a what looked like a portable gas fire running of what I assume a would be a LPG calour gas...
We wish to have a glass fronted hearth gas fire installed. Other than the heat output an important factor is the visual appearance – flame height, spread etc. Our existing gas supply pipe exiting the concrete floor is 15mm OD. One dealer assures us this is adequate. However another dealer says...

Hi all. I don't normally deal with fires but one of the inlaws just called saying that the fire has been going out lately randomly. I said I can have a look at it.
Any advice on what might be the issue?
I don't think it's been serviced and I'm assuming it's an issue with the ODS. It's only a...

Hi went to a gazco room sealed gas fire. Looks like a standard stove flue goes into chimney breast then rises about 2.5m 90deg to a ceiling void (with a hatch). Selkirk twin wall by this point another 90deg outside to a power flue fan unit. all taped together.
It just doesn't seem right...

Just a quick question re this fire I was called out to have a look at.
The customer has the original installation and servicing instructions as well as the customer operating instructions which you cannot seem to find anywhere online and also BFG Europe don't support this fire.

Fire questionCustomer of mine has bought a metalfire urban tunnel, it's onto a conventional chimney. It's fitted in the bedroom and the other side is in the bathroom. The fire comes from the factory with one side completely sealed with glass so it's not drawing air from that room. It also has...
