Wood burner without a chimney?

Is it possible? Can you get a wood burner which vents straight through the wall as opposed to up through a chimney?

Hope my question makes sense

Yes. You can vent out the back of some to the outside and have an external stainless steel chimney. Or out the top, up a bit and then out through the wall. The stainless steel double lined chimneys aren't cheap...

Of course, an insulated flue will do the job. Whatever you do don't fit it yourself, get a well established company to do the job. Some will even do secondhand woodburners and flues that are in perfect working order so it won't break the bank.

You should also be supplied with a carbon monoxide alarm as required by law.

I think the house already has a carbon monoxide detector, that some great news thank you :-)

Yes possible, here's ours being fitted. Not cheap though (about £4500 in total including fire)

Same as what PO said.

We got a quote for the cheapest out there & all-in, it was £2,800.

The price for one similar to Pp's came in at £4,500, just like theirs did.

We won't be going with it Sad

Looks like that may be the sort of figure you'd be looking at.

Wow those quotes are expensive! Go for a secondhand burner it works out much cheaper than new. You may not find so many modern/urban styles but the classic ones always look good wherever you put them.
