flue

johnytwentyten

hi,
im putting in a stove and began pulling out the fire and back boiler, problem is 2 pots fell out of the chimney as they were cracked. im putting in a flexi flue and im wondering if i can run it down the chimney and just leave it on its own without the 2 last pots. To get the 2 last pots back in i think i would need to break into the wall and i really dont want to start into all that if i can help it, if i find some way to support the last existing pot could i just use a bit of galvaband or somethin to hold the rest of the flexi until runs into the metre pipe? advice badly needed!((where are ya robbie g!)

See if you can get a pic up the chimney and the front of it.Then tell me what way the stoves been fitted.Is there a gather unit without getting a look it would be very hard to say if the other liners will just stay there if they're not supported the simple answer is the will start to fall so the problem starts as how to support them so take a few pics and we'll have a look and see if we can advise best.

thanks, will take a few pics but not quite sure how to post them on here, had trouble before, no real gather unit, flexi would just be running down into the 1 metre stove pipe. still have a bit of breaking out to do so will try the pics when its all cleared out and easier to see up there, thanks again
