Just the bottom of the flue, exposed under the hood. We had an electrician install the hood fan/filter/lighting unit and he connected it to the flue with no questions.<br /><br />emm, there is a piece of wire mesh over the chimney that kept the critters out (but not the wasps).

If not, how on earth did you convince the plumber to do it? We tried and tried and they all just say it's illegal (which it isn't if the chimney is not in use for a fire, but they clearly don't want to do it).Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472449597146519943noreply@blogger.com
