Hetas for dummies

[SilverShadow]

Ie, me! 😁 

 

Hey folks, please forgive my naivity, but a couple of quick Q's around HETAS certification, if you would indulge me, please

 

1) In terms of obtaining a certificate for an existing wood stove/flue/hearth system - can any authorised fireplace installer inspect & grant certification?

 

2) if not a fireplace installer, then is there a recognised trader/entity who can undertake this? 

 

3) if so, does anyone have a ballpark figure for inspection/approval? (Afaik, the certificate itself is approx £36)

 

This is purely from a research perspective, for potentially renovating an old stove in an outbuilding (which is exempt from building regs)

 

Many thanks for your time 😁

Give HETAS a call, they may be able to issue a replacement certificate.

I think that all stove / flue / chimney work, inc refurb, needs either a Hetas-qualified person (who can self-certify) or alternatively BC sign-off.
