What's Involved in a Preferred Gas Chimney Suitability Assessment?

Our detailed assessment covers all critical aspects of your chimney, including:

  • Visual Inspection: We'll carefully examine the chimney stack, brickwork, and flashing for any signs of damage or deterioration.
  • Flue Integrity Check: This ensures the flue is free from obstructions and leaks, allowing for proper ventilation.
  • Ventilation Assessment: We'll check that adequate ventilation is in place to support the safe operation of your gas fire.
  • Chimney Draw Test: This test verifies that the chimney is drawing air correctly, ensuring efficient removal of combustion gases.
  • Spillage Test: After installation (if applicable), we perform a spillage test to confirm no fumes are escaping into the room.
