Hellohello!
I have purchased a wall-mounted fireplace,
Weight 88kg, which will hang on the chimney breast.
This will be attached at 6 fixation points.
The chimney breast itself is 100 years old and built with solid bricks.
I am afraid of cracking the bricks if I use any expansion bolts.
The other option I am considering is embedding threaded rods with chemical anchors; Essve has one that is approved for 100 degrees long-term and 160 degrees short-term heat load, and I am concerned if the heat will get through.
What do people say here? How would you have done it?
