    Converting a room onto a play/lounge room. Would love to put a stove into it to make it nice and cosy in the winter months. However, dont have a chimney.Are there other options out there - is there a pipe that can be run from the stove up through the ceeling/roof - its a bungalo.

    Something like this..

    this can be retro-fitted using a double walled flue.

    Also, remember that a chimney doesn't have to be constructed in heavy blockwork or concrete construction. The double walled flue pipe could be houses in a metal stud and firelined slab chimney covered with WBP, non permiable membrane, expanded metal and plastered on the outside to look like a 'normal' chimney.

    And since the stove is then part of the heating system for your house you do not need planning permission for the chimney (unless your bungalow is a protected structure).

    Our stoves have flues that exit the walls and travel up the exterior walls.

    I can take a snap later but in the bottom right of this picture you will see a large egg shaped hole in the wall and a smaller one from just before it was installed.. The large hole is for the flue, it enters the room at 45deg and the smaller hole is the air inlet. The flue is fixed to the outside wall and sits just below the top of the roof.
