external box for woodburner
Posted: Sun Mar 08, 2009 4:33 pm
I want to knock a hole in an outside cavity wall and build a box on the outside of wall to take a woodburner. The stainless twin wall flue will then go up the outside of the wall and the stove will take up less internal floor space. Do I need to build the box with a cavity wall and if so what should I use to insulate the cavity? Also, do I need to line the inside of the box with a special liner and what should I use on the roof? I recognise that I will need to install a lintel in the opening.
