Balanced Flue Gas Fires
Balanced flue gas fires are designed for homes without a chimney, using a sealed system that vents directly through an external wall. They provide a real flame effect and practical heat output without the need for a traditional flue or chimney.
With their room-sealed design, balanced flue gas fires draw air from outside and expel fumes externally, making them a safe and efficient option for a wide range of modern homes.
How Does a Balanced Flue Gas Fire Work?
Balanced flue gas fires use a double-walled pipe that runs through an external wall. This allows the fire to draw in fresh air for combustion while safely expelling waste gases outside, without affecting the air inside your room.
Why Choose a Balanced Flue Gas Fire?
- No chimney required – ideal for homes without an existing flue
- Room-sealed design – draws air from outside, not the room
- Efficient heating – designed to retain and deliver heat effectively
- Real flame effect – provides the look and feel of a gas fire
Installation Requirements
Balanced flue gas fires must be installed on an external wall to allow the flue pipe to vent outside. This is the key requirement when deciding if this type of fire is suitable for your home.
