    Hi,

    I'm trying to install a stove in our open fireplace in a ground floor (corner) apartment in a 3 storey complex with a flat roof.

    We have a chimney stack that extends the 3 storeys to the top of the building and I have a quote for €2.5k Eur including a flue all the way to the roof (installed by a hoist/boom), stove + installation + the creation of a 6 inch air vent in the wall near the stove.

    The management company state that I need board approval to (a) access the roof and obtain approval for the flue and (b) create the air vent. From the tone of the e-mail, it seems unlikely we'd obtain this.

    What can I do here? What rules should I be looking at? Can they block roof access to my own chimney pot?

    Thanks!

    This is more of a contractual issue than a stove installation issue. If you want to delete this and post it elsewhere on the site, let me know.
