Hello,
am converting an open fire to a gas fire for convenience and am debating whether to put a conventional or balanced flue fire in place. The balanced flue option works out eur1,000 more expensive.
The model I'm looking at is 5.2kW input and 4.4kW output. The fire place is in an open plan sitting/dining/kitchen which has an external wall vent.
If however we partition off the sitting area then the fire would be in a room without a vent (unless we core a new one).
My question is; is a conventional flue gas fire of this kW rating likely to deplete the oxygen in the room to the point where people begin to feel ill effects?
thanks,
