Chimney Liner Work Done to the Instructions in Harbour Island

Relining pros who put the size, insulation and top parts on paper before work starts.

Fitting a round liner into a narrow flue

Some chimneys have a flue too tight for a round liner of the required size. Flexible liners can be ovalized to fit, and the manufacturer notes that this reduces their cross-sectional area.

An ovalized liner therefore has to be checked against the sizing rule after shaping. A liner that fits the gap but falls below the required area has only moved the problem.

If your flue is tight, we tell you what shape and size will work and what the reshaping does to the numbers.

Replacing clay flue tile with clay tile

Clay tile remains a lining option under the Florida Building Code. New clay liners are set in medium-duty, water-insoluble refractory mortar, supported on every side, and carried from the top of the smoke chamber up past the top of the chimney walls.

BIA advises inspecting each flue tile for cracks just before it is set. Replacing clay with clay usually means opening the chimney, which is why it tends to belong with a rebuild.

When clay is the better answer for your chimney, we explain what opening the stack involves and price it clearly.

Using the fireplace after relining

Most relined chimneys can be used soon after installation, but some insulation products need gentle fires for a period while they dry. The product instructions set how long and how hot.

Your crew should tell you before leaving whether any break-in period applies. Firing hard straight away can work against a poured insulation that is still drying. A gentle start also gives any fresh mortar at the top time to finish curing.

We explain the first-use advice for the system we installed and leave the instructions with you.

Relining after a chimney fire

If the chimney is on fire, leave the house with everyone and phone 911 once you are outside. Liner instructions say the fire department should be notified right away about any fire inside a liner.

Afterward, the chimney should not be used until a qualified person has inspected it and it has been cleaned or repaired. Flue fires can damage a lining in ways that cannot be seen from the room.

Once emergency responders are done, our team inspects the flue and explains whether a new liner is needed.
