Bonfire Stoves Flues and FireplacesThe growth in popularity for stoves and fires has sadly coincided with growth in thatched roof properties catching fire ! Bonfire have been HETAS approved for over 10 years and have experience of many installations into Thatch roofs
We are used to installing fires and wood burning stoves into all types building with “combustible roof coverings” such as Thatch, Green roofs and Cedar shingles. We can install into existing chimneys and well as creating flues through barns and barn conversions.
How can fires be avoided ?
No two situations are the same and we have to carry out careful site survey and help the customer choose the correct materials and appliances.
If at all possible we would install a stainless steel solid wall flue that has been approved and tested by a government recognised test house to offer the maximum insulation properties.
We would aim to design the solution to vent the flue void, but reduce the risk of any weather or damp ingress to the chimney and also ensure the height and design of chimney minimises the chance of sparks coming into contact with roof covering.
