We had a large Salisbury gas stove with balanced flue installed just before Christmas. Within a week the black paint inside on the back of the fire started to tarnish then peel off. Within10 days, the two mirrored sides within the fire box fell off, you could see just a tiny outline of what looks like a glue gun applied adhesive underneath that has failed. We couldn’t contact anyone over Christmas, so did so in the new year. Chesneys referred us back to the supplier who asked for further photos. We were shocked to see when we opened the door to take the photos that there was a huge amount of soot/tar buildup in the fire. We inspected the balanced flue outside and were dismayed to see a black sooty stained deposit of about 10 foot above the flue from the emissions that has badly marked our brickwork. Chesney's offered to send us some paint and glue to paint the interior ourselves and stick the mirror back on, we should not be expected to patch a substandard product that isn’t fit for purpose. No offer to inspect and we are very disappointed that there is no intention to after spending over £2500 on the fire.
