Can I have a fire or log burner in a new build?

Absolutely! While new builds are typically designed with energy efficiency and modern living in mind, they’re also incredibly versatile. You don’t need a traditional chimney or flue to enjoy the warmth and charm of a fire—there are plenty of options available, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.




Options for a Fire in a New Build


1. Log Burners


A log burner can bring that classic, cosy feel to your new build. However, most new builds lack a traditional chimney, which means you’ll need a flue system installed.


  • Flue Installation: We can install a twin-wall flue system to safely vent your log burner. These flues can run externally up the side of your house or internally through the roof.

  • Eco-Friendly Models: Many log burners are now designed to meet modern eco standards, making them a sustainable option even in new builds.


2. Bioethanol Fires


For those who want a fire without the hassle of a flue or chimney, bioethanol fires are ideal.


  • Chesneys Salisbury Bioethanol Fire: Stylish, clean-burning, and incredibly easy to install, the Salisbury bioethanol fire is perfect for modern homes.

  • No Flue Needed: Bioethanol fires require no venting, meaning they can be placed almost anywhere, from your living room to a sleek open-plan kitchen.


3. Gas Fires


Gas fires provide instant warmth and a realistic flame effect with the convenience of a button.


  • Balanced Flue Systems: In homes without a chimney, we can install a balanced flue that vents directly through an external wall.

  • Stylish Designs: From traditional to contemporary, gas fires come in a wide range of styles to complement your décor.


4. Electric Fires


Electric fires are the ultimate in flexibility and convenience, requiring no flue or venting at all.


  • Realistic Flame Effects: Modern electric fires offer stunningly lifelike flame visuals, with options for customisable colours and settings.

  • Easy Installation: Simply plug in your electric fire, and you’re good to go—no major building work required.
