I’m planning on installing another WArm morning I picked up. It will be piped into a internal chimney that has plaster and paint on it. Do I need to remove this from the chimney? There is no lathe they just plastered directly on the brick. I plan on putting this pretty close to it.

Don't understand why you would think sooo????? BUT, I'd just leave it as is.

Plaster wont burn however, wall paper can.

Yeh think I’ll try a heat shield when I can be home and monitor it then see what happens. I have to get some coal first. Meant to stock up over the summer but kept putting it off. Too many irons in the fire.

If it is just painted plaster I would leave it alone.
