I wondered what finishes people have opted for, and if the heat was a problem. Plaster board could get quite hot.
Tiles / Bricks / Plated out with some sort of steel fitting,then have it plastered or tiles on top ??
Any suggestions or advice........
The guys who did ours (photo a few posts previously) just rendered the inside of the fireplace; it's brick behind. The fireplace is on an internal wall in our house, and the other side of the back of the fireplace is in the kitchen. When the fire has been burning hot for a few hours the kitchen wall feels so hot you can't comfortably hold your hand on it in the area nearest the stove. I'm not sure if it will do the bricks any harm but it will certainly warm the kitchen up a bit.Tiles / Bricks / Plated out with some sort of steel fitting,then have it plastered or tiles on top ??

Before we decorate the room I might make up a shield to hide behind the stove if anyone thinks the wall getting so hot could cause any problems.

If I were buying another one, I'd look at a Hwam Vivaldi. I have something similar but not normally sold in this country. I prefer a rear flue exit rather than a flue out of the top, regs say you have to turn it through 90 degrees to vertical within 6". Sorry, I've got to go and add some more logs...
