Gas fire installation help
Discussion
We want to install a gas fire. The gas is only five metres away so that's easy. The problem we have is that we want to fit it in a wall that has regular plasterboard, electrics and regular celotex insulation. What we would like to have is a low, wide gas fire set into the wall with the TV above it. We do not want the TV mounted so high we all get sore necks looking at it.
Can someone advise how close the electrics can be to the fire? How much plasterboard and skirting board we will need to replace with heat resistant stuff and also weather we would need a hearth on the floor - the floor is currently tiled. Here's the layout at the moment.

You need to speak to a Gas fitter not research balanced flues.
I like to think i can do most things in my home, however, gas is something i would never do myself.
There is no way I'm fitting this. However, I always research what I'm buying because I like to know if someone is talking cobblers. I like to think i can do most things in my home, however, gas is something i would never do myself.
