Question
Hi i live in a old terraced house i want a woodburner .But apparently the chimney breast has been took out of my daughters bedroom.And capped off.is there any way we could still have a wood burner installed.

Answer
Hello Maggie. It is hard to tell with out seeing your set up but I would have a local Certified Chimney Sweep (www.csia.org, there you can look up by zip code to find one near you) take a first hand look at what you have they should be able to help.
