  • Anything in flats that has "fire" associated with it is nuts nowadays and many insurance policies specifically preclude contractors or consultants from doing works which would have an effect. I can't see see the landlord agreeing for anything less than silly money- it's not worth the risk.

  • About to hit this.
    removing a warm air boiler and replacing with a wet one in different location but the building has a central flue serving all flats which has to be firesafe. i’ll get the remover/installer to rivet a piece of metal (or whatever is recommended for fire safety) and use intumescent mastic and take pictures of the product used if it ever gets inspected.

  • You want to be dead certain that nothing is going to come out of that flue and go in to your gaff, that's for sure.

  • Make sure you keep all the paperwork. Landlords/agents might not inspect but a buyer's surveyor might when it comes to sell
