as above,...what can i do to sort it

 

Put out the fire








chimney blocked?

 

pmsl someone beat me to it

 

What do you mean Carl? Fire in an allotment or something....

Tell us a bit more....

 

ive you tried putting the fire out, splash of water, lob some sand on or even dial 99 and ask for the coast guard



is this a trick question

 

Have you got the right coal? Housecoal or smokeless?

Also, it would point to the chimney being blocked too

 

ker ching,.....

someone who doesnt think of themselves as a funny guy



ok....


using wood,....

its been burning mint all night, now just decided to kick out a fucking shit load


btw to all that havent guessed, its an open fire in the livingroom


carl

 

For those that don't understand, I took it to mean he has an open fire in his front room that is putting out smoke into the room - could be wrong

 

you need a chimney man to come out and clean it out or stop buring what ever you are burning

 

Chimney sounds like its got blocked mate!

 

Wood could be damp, causing the smoke?
Just a thought as it's cold and damp outside, our coal/logs/kindling etc is stored outside at work and gets rained on all the time

 

sorry mate,hope you understand our confusion though as most of us on here either have central heating OR there open fine is like mine and when it kicks out smoke we turn off the plug quick


i thought you ment open fire as in you was burning old shite in yer garden ect



for the love of god get with the times and understand that central heating is in most homes for a reason


open fires are only there to get the missus in the mood when shes on and im no expert but the neighbours knocking on the door to save you from a fire aint they way to do that



visit argos's website and but a real open fire,,,,,,,,,,,, that uses bulbs and led's ect aswell as keeping you warm

 

where do you work james ?

are you a bulter in the 19th century


you guys are gonna faint when your read about underfloor heating and hot running water that comes out of small water pumps located in the kitchen

 

for the love of god get with the times and understand that central heating is in most homes for a reason


errr,.....fuck off.....

you guys are gonna faint when your read about underfloor heating and hot running water that comes out of small water pumps located in the kitchen

errr.........fuck off also,.....

 

Carl you may well have the wrong type of 'granny' at the top of your chimney. A 'burly vent' at the top of chimney will draw more smoke upwards.

lol at the terms used...but hopefully you understand the lingo

 

Carl if has been working ok then it could be a change of wind direction. The pot may be fitted with wrong cowl or not even have 1. Is there plenty of draw?? ie with fire not lit hold a smoking/smouldering peice of paper outside of the grate,is the smoke pulled into the fire and up the chimney? also did hear we are getting low cloud tnite,so heavy air pressure may be stopping smoke exit pot

 

christ some people really dont like change


maybe try a calor gas heater to break you into the future stuff


if you dont reply straight away ill just assume youre running out of parafin and you are having issues seeing the keyboard

 

i just press a button in my kitchen marked "heating" and in 10 mins the room gets warm if it dont i press a button on my boiler that reads "re-set"


thats the techy part too

 

So long as its out before Santa's here



then i dont see a prob

 

1. Is there plenty of draw?? ie with fire not lit hold a smoking/smouldering peice of paper outside of the grate,is the smoke pulled into the fire and up the chimney


cheeky fucker,.....i know what draw means,.....
its what some people nickname marijuana



if you dont reply straight away ill just assume youre running out of parafin and you are having issues seeing the keyboard

holy shit,....ive never laughed as much......oh wait,...yes i have, when someone stole my car....


i think i know what it is,.....the fucking wind is blowing down the chimney,......twating wind

 

you have to press a button!!

 

you need to chill a little,,,,,,,,,, and im guessing you prob are if you put the fire out


seriously mate you are taking this to heart a little

 

no seriously,....im not,....ive found 99% of comments very ammusing,....

its just that,....my room, my face, and my clothes are covered in smoke, and i have to open the windows to air the fucking place which defies the point of having any type of heating, and the smoke alarms keep going off,....

but,...in general, i am having a great time....

 

its as i put m8, cowl will sort it

 

dont mate me you big dirty donkey molestar,,....

when you gonna phone me about what we talked about.....

 

so you have a romanti fire burning and it requires you to open the windows aswell



hell id rather just stick a jumper on tbh and drink a few brandys



just give up and just for tonight make british gas work for them money

 

hopefully this week m8 waiting for a ideal one to show you and not a rush one

 

good man.....

this time next year monkey,................................youll be out of business, living on the street pimping out your bird, for just enough money to buy a pot noodle to share between you and your rag wearing family....and ill have drank myself to death.....

 

 

Opening windows causes smoke to belch out, slamming doors in the house does and as said blocked chimney.

Open fires are new fangled heating is all well and good but you just cant beat an open fire.

 

mate im sitting here next to my window all nice and warm

so yes you can beat a open fire


its just the look thats the appeal,,,,,,,,, but a smoke fillled room kills that image

 

Yeah but you live in a smoke filled city so whats the difference

You can still have central heating with an open fire you know, its not like you have to light the fire by rubbing sticks.

Theres just summat about the look, the heat and the noise an open fire makes, and its not smokey when its running right,lol

 

so entral heating but still want your left leg spit roasted ontop too



open fire in a pub ,,,,,,,,, yeah thats a plan

at home under floor heating with central heating is the way to go



if you want the noise














eat a pack of twiglets when watching eastenders

 

hahahhhahahahahahaa
