    What happens with no ventilation even with no fire just paper over it?

    Got a gas fire which was condemned, chimney is capped! Not going to replace fire, just an ornament. Got a draft, probably coming down chimney, not willing to pay stupid prices! Any ideas.?

    How do you then deal with the problem of dampness/ventilation?

    • @spendtimesavemoneydiy
      @spendtimesavemoneydiy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The balloon isn't an exact fit, so there is enough air passing through to ventilate the chimney to avoid damp but not enough so there is a big draught.

    It’s a shame you no longer use the fireplace, although they can be dangerous I guess 🔥👍

      HGV Matt I have installed a great central heating system so there's no need for open fires.
