Unfortunately, woodburners are terrible for air quality inside and outside houses. Best to avoid where possible.

[-]

2xw@reddit

Still nice if you're not bothered about the air quality, which I'm not

[-]

2xw@reddit

You can quit smoking, drinking, drugs, fatty food, red meat, having a fire, vaping, being near a road, and choose live the ascetic life of a monk and you will die regardless.

Dick_in_owl@reddit

Everyone dies some sooner than others and some with 20 years of pain and suffering until they finally get release.

However these are all choices people can make, breathing in smoke from neighbourhood of cuntish wood burners however is forced upon everyone around you.

It is estimated that they lead to the early death of more than 400,000 people across Europe each year.

Eco design wood burners create 450x more pollution than gas centre heating.

Old stoves (now banned) 3700x est

22% of all PM 2.5 in the air in the UK is produced by cunts with wood burners because fashion. Fucking disgrace.

[-]

LevelSecret3537@reddit

400000 people across the population of Europe is around 0.05%.

There are real financial benefits to wood burning now that we've all been shafted by big energy, so they don't lose out too much in the inevitable switch over to EV's. Loads of poor folk have wood burners now so they can still heat their homes after they've been cut off.

I'm pretty sure there are worse pollutants in diesel than wood because I've never seen a wood stove with a catalytic converter.

Your stats probably don't take into account the absorption of CO2 by the forest the wood grew in, which is very biased. But I get that if you had seen someone you care about die painfully over 20 years and attributed it to air pollution, then you're gonna be biased.

[-]

Dick_in_owl@reddit

Indeed however 20,400 people died in car accidents in Europe last year. And people seem to really care about car safety.

Wood is around 7p per kWh and less efficient than gas, gas is around 5.50 kWh.

Burning wood produces far more polluting than diesel etc its PM values are multiples and it causes acid rain. There is a reason London doesn’t get smog anymore.

[-]

2xw@reddit

Haha. I don't have any neighbours. If any choose to build near me, that's their choice - the house has been there burning wood since the c16th.

I get that the modern obsession with longevity without life quality can be emotionally persuasive, and that this coupled with living in a city can make folks err towards authoritarianism, but persuaded I am not.

[-]

Dick_in_owl@reddit

Firstly not a “southerner” secondly don’t live in a city. Pollution from wood burning stoves travels hundreds of miles.

Yorkshire is full of towns and villages pumping out more pollutants than the bloody m62

[-]

2xw@reddit

None of which are my problem - sorry, but you have not been persuasive. Have a good evening!

[-]

Dick_in_owl@reddit

Exactly! It’s always “not my problem” when it comes to the environment. People think if they’re not directly affected, they don’t have to care. But that mindset is why things are getting worse. Whether it’s plastic waste, pollution, or deforestation, everyone’s passing the buck instead of making small changes. It’s everyone’s problem, but too few are willing to act.

[-]

2xw@reddit

There's nothing I can do as an individual about any of those things. Legislate against me, stop spending time on Reddit talking to strangers and write to your MP.

I enjoy your optimism however, I did a PhD in environmental science. There's nothing we can do about any of those things you mentioned, as a species we are fucked. Enjoy yourself in the time you have left, earth will be better without us.

[-]

Dick_in_owl@reddit

I get where you’re coming from, and it’s easy to feel powerless when faced with such massive issues. But dismissing individual action just feeds into that defeatist cycle. Yes, systemic change is key, and pressuring leaders is crucial, but change also happens from the ground up. Collective small actions can shift cultural norms and put pressure on the powers that be. While I respect your expertise, giving up entirely isn’t an option for a lot of people who want to leave the world better than they found it, even if the odds are long.

[-]

Old_Man_Benny@reddit

I just couldn't give it up. I do my best and use smokeless coal were I can, we are a very eco house and we do our best but I grew up around camp fires, chewing the fat around a fire is one of my favourite things to do.

[-]

Dick_in_owl@reddit

Burning just 1kg of smokeless coal releases up to 40g of cancer-causing polyaromatic hydrocarbons, posing severe health risks with prolonged exposure.

[-]

Beebeeseebee@reddit

Okay but this "ban everything I disapprove of" business has to end somewhere.

Atschmid@reddit

Start by really cleaning it up.

Do you rent or own?

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

Own, so we can do whatever we want with it.

[-]

Atschmid@reddit

hoow big is the room? Is it the only source of heat in the room?

It's weirdly positioned in the corner. I assume the chimney has other openings in other rooms that are more esthetically pleasing? If so, I would close this one up. But if not, then maybe call in an architect and see if it could be redesigned?

[-]

OldManAndTheSea93@reddit

I would either restore the chimney and add a wood burner (if allowed to do so in your area). Then put a single shelf above it and use it as a mantle.

Or block off the actual chimney bit and have some candles in bell jars. Maybe a couple of plants if there is a good amount of natural light.

It’s a really nice feature to keep so I can understand the want to keep it. I would maybe post in r/interiordesign and see what they are saying to it

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

Thanks, I'll give that a go

[-]

Autofish@reddit

Strip off the paint, I bet there’s more of that nice maroon tile under there. Looks like this was added in the 30’s, very art deco. So I reckon if you wanted to back to the earlier style there’d be room for it if you took this bit off.

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

Thanks, that's really helpful !

[-]

AlternativeFair2740@reddit

You are supposed to restore it to its original glory. What else could you do?

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

But that's part of the problem, what would it originally have looked like? Harth? Surround? Which parts are original and which have been added more recently?

[-]

artfartfar@reddit

That is so cool I've never seen a fireplace like that. I'd Def try and restore the brick. Is it functional?

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

It is yeah, would just need cleaning out.

[-]

SmegmaSandwich69420@reddit

Is the chimney open all the way up?

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

Yeah

[-]

DementedDon@reddit

Would there not typically be a stone slab under the brick hearth? Took two fireplaces out of my last flat and that's what I found, a right bugger to level!

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

I took it out yesterday. There was some bits of wood, loads of cement and then eventually the tiles on top you see there. Weighed a bloody tonne!

[-]

Sad_Explanation_6419@reddit

That’s a really cool and unique art deco fireplace - If it were me I’d definitely keep it!

I think you could get a decent builder to strip off the whitewash and either reveal whatever red tiling is underneath or repaint it to match. A good joiner could definitely also build a wood surround and lintel if you wanted, or just put a shelf over it!

Just my 2p but I think it would look lovely done up and it’s such a cool feature - it’d be a real shame to plaster it over or turn it into a more standard one.

You could stick an ethanol fire in there and get a proper fireplace too.

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

Wasn't art deco a lot later that 1900? Though maybe that's why I can't find anything Edwardian that matches ours - because they're not Edwardian a d were added / changed later 🤦🏻‍♂️

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

House built in 1901. We can't find a surround that will fit over or around it. We'd rather restore it than blank it off and cover it but the keystone at the top protrudes by 1.5".

Any advice or ideas appreciated.

[-]

TangyZizz@reddit

I think it may have had a tall, leggy surround originally, something like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134524718726 (not my listing!)

So overall it would look a bit like this: https://pin.it/6wGhTWz7A

If you want something less fussy/more low key you could have a simple shelf: https://images.app.goo.gl/YY1DohZQdDTz4K9e8

Interested in what’s under that awful paint job!

[-]

ComicBookPosterBoy@reddit (OP)

This is the type of reply I was hoping for. Thank you so much!

[-]

AccomplishedBid2866@reddit

That looks like it should be a nice art deco fire place. Carefully removing the paint has to be your first priority, then you can see what's under there.

We had one similar to that in a house built in 1905. I think the fireplace was a slightly later addition, but I could be wrong.

We managed to find a real flame gas fire for ours, you'd need to find a specialist supplier though. Other option is look in reclamation yards for old grates that will fit in the space. It's worth keeping and persevering with.

[-]

Sammydemon@reddit

Art deco was not developed until at least 20 years after that.

[-]

AccomplishedBid2866@reddit

Which i thought was what I thought I had said. My fireplace, which was very similar, was put in about 20 years after the house was built, ie sometime in the 1920s.

[-]

[-]

dbxp@reddit

Why not leave it as is? It looks to me like it's not meant to have an additional surround, just needs a bit of a clean up

[-]

KeithMyArthe@reddit

Agree, it would look far better if it was stripped back to natural brick rather than poorly applied paint in inappropriate colours.

[-]

Meet-me-behind-bins@reddit

[-]

I’d clean it up and see what the original tiles are like and then depending on what your chosen colour scheme is, I’d either leave the tiles as is or paint them. Then I’d add a one or two colour halo or rainbow paint effect on the wall around it so it’s integrated into the room. Maybe carry the colour through around the bottom half of the walls.

Do you want a fireplace for a fire or a multifuel burner? If you do, just get rid of all the brickwork (assuming it isn't special - doesn't look like it) and put a proper fireplace in. The keystone bit is all just decoration and can be removed.

If you don't want a fire there then block the chimney and do something "artistic" with the fire surround. Or get rid of it all and plaster over it.

r/diyuk might have better ideas.

You could open it all up with a lintel for a traditional square opening but imo it's a cool quirky feature.

I'd be looking to put a small log burner in. Get rid of that hearth. Take out all the non structural bricks. Optionally trim the keystone flush with the other brickwork. New hearth. Plaster. Install burner.

You could make a piece around the protruding keystone. Some cut stone, tile, slate, wood, copper, brass etc would work.

Or you could really show the arch off by getting some stone, tile, slate, wood cut to match the curve on each side of the keystone.

All depends on your taste and budget really.
