Smoke or Heat Alarms?

Zoomup
Mornin' All,

I am familiar with open fires that burn logs or coal.  I am not so familiar with enclosed "log burners" or enclosed "multi-fuel stoves".


When using these is there a chance of some or fumes being created when using them that could trigger a smoke alarm, especially at the time of first lighting them?


I am about to plan a system for a holiday let cottage that has two log burners in  two separate rooms. We don't want false alarms as the detectors will be interlinked.


Smoke or heat types?

    By contrast to Mike's example, when daughter had some repairs and repointing done, the builder put 6 pots on the 4 flues in the chimney - originally 2 on either side of semi-detached cottages. I could not convince her that there were only ever 4 hearths (which still exist).


    When I got my wood burner (with pizza oven ) I could not get a quote from anybody without lining the flue at a cost of £2k. They seemed to think that chimneys blow rather than suck. ?
