Two fireplaces, one in the loungs and one in the kitchen.

Found out the fireplace I was about to rip out is a Baxi Burnall and new bricks and spares are available.

Might put the multi fuel in the kitchen in stead of replacing the Burnall with it. Anyone got experience of this type of fire? Do open fires put as much warmth into the room as a multi fuel? Only issue is I'll have to run the open fire on smokeless coal..

Assuming you are talking of a stove when you say multifuel, how old is the chimney?

Mid-sixties,lounge will need lining for the multifuel/woodburner. Kitchen is currently lined for gas boiler but will also need re-lining.

Maybe not if it is that age. I would get a chimney sweep round to test the chimney - if the chimney is built to current specifications then you shouldn't need to line it. If it is built using brick/lime/mortar then you probably will need to line it.
