Installation
A beautiful Fireplace can add so much to the look and value of your home and is often regarded as a major style statement. In addition to a glowing and more welcoming home, you´re creating a much healthier and more invigorating atmosphere, and adding to the character of your investment into the bargain.
However, never forget that essentially they are complex working appliances that must be treated with care and installed with caution.

Gas Fires
Gas fires can be fitted into most existing fireplaces, while a new hole-in-the-wall style fireplace can give a really modern look. Moving a fire up off the floor creates a contemporary style statement and can work well in a period property.
There is only one gas safety register that you need to use. Look for the yellow Gas Safe Register triangle.
Gas Safe Register replaced the CORGI gas register in Great Britain and the Isle of Man on 1 April 2009.
Anyone carrying out work on gas must be registered with Gas Safe Register. If not, they are breaking the law and putting you and your family at risk.
Only a Gas Safe registered engineer is legally allowed to install gas appliances, boilers, hobs, ovens or fires in your home or workplace.
You must only use a Gas Safe registered engineer for any type of gas work, including installation, maintenance and servicing.

Installation of electric fires is often as simple as placing it where you want it and plugging it in. Please do pay attention to the detailed instructions provided with each product though, as some need a stability bracket affixing if they are to be free standing rather than fixed in place, and there are numerous safety warnings to take into account. This is especially important where children and the elderly/infirm will be around. Wall hanging electric fires will require some competence to fit to the wall but fitting templates are usually provided where required. If you are having any electrical work done in your home other than plugging the fire in to an existing socket, it is now necessary to use an appropriately qualified electrician. Easy access must always be available to the electrical supply isolator for the fire whether it is a plug socket or fixed fused spur.
Installation of solid fuel and wood burning appliances requires a Competent Person who is registered with a scheme operator, such as HETAS established as such under Building Regulations Part J for that type of work.
