After the back boiler is gone

    Hi, I recently replaced my old gas back boiler with condensing boiler. The back boiler was decomminsioned and removed, but now I have a gapping hole where it once was. The flue and flue liner are still there and I was wondering if it is possible to get a wood buring stove to put in its place.

    The sort of thing I'm thinking of is here Green Stoves. The insert stoves are the ones I'm looking at.

    They are reasonable value and appear to be self installable. It also fits the gap perfectly. I'm a bit worried though about doing this myself becasue the flue liner is still in place. Does any one if I can really just stick this in and do I need to prep the back boiler cavity in some way? Remove the liner? Am I better off getting some one in to do it? Money is very tight but I need a solution to the mess that's there at the moment.

    Any comments appreciated! Thanks.

    You will have to remove the existing liner,if your chinney has clay liners this will be ok to use for a stove.
