CHIMNEY AND FLUE SYSTEMS
Important Note
| Flues are controlled services as
defined in Regulation 2 of the Building Regulations, that is to say they
are services in relation to which Part J of Schedule 1 imposes
requirements. If renovation, refurbishment or repair amounts to or
involves the provision of a new or replacement flue liner, it is
"building work" within the meaning of Regulation 3 of the
Building Regulations. "building work" must not be undertaken
without prior notification to the local authority. It is your
responsibility to obtain the necessary approval.
