    Great job! My house is a Victorian terrace with a passagea. The fireplaces at the ground floor are external but the ones in the first floor are internal. Should I just add two airbricks to the blocked fireplaces in the first floor? I want to block all of them since I can't use them but I want to avoid damp.

    Question, I live in a semi detached with a shared chimney breast between the houses. What's the best way to allow airflow into it? As access to the back of the chimney to put an air brick in won't be possible

    • @BibiMizrah

      Put a gap on internal brickwork and install an internal vent. Obviously not as visually appealing as the outside airbrick but will prevent damp.

    Hello, @buildingwithbudd I’m looking at doing this with mine… was going to cap the chimney so isit advised to still airbrick the back of the chimney breast?

    • @BuildingwithBudd
      @BuildingwithBudd  ปีที่แล้ว

      You definitely need some air flow, the cap on the top needs air holes as well so you get a flow of air from bottom to top, 👍

    Why the air vent?

    • @BuildingwithBudd
      @BuildingwithBudd  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s to stop the chimney from sweating and causing random damp patches on the inside the property, many thanks for watching 👍👍

      So somehow i need air to get in at the bottom, Rght?

    • @BuildingwithBudd
      @BuildingwithBudd  ปีที่แล้ว

      You need to get air flowing through, so the best one
      Is an air brick as low as you can get it , then it will flow up to the chimney pot , hope this helps 👍
