Sizing, Sealing and Installing Your New Liner
Relining pros who put the size, insulation and top parts on paper before work starts.
Cleaning the flue before a new liner goes in
Liner manufacturers require a thoroughly cleaned chimney before installation. Soot, tar and glazed creosote left in the flue can hide cracks and make it harder to route the new liner past tight spots.
The same instructions ask the installer to look for obstructions, cracked, loose or missing bricks and eroded mortar joints. Cleaning is what makes that look possible. It also gives a true measurement of the flue, because deposits make a passage look smaller than it is.
On every relining job our team lists the cleaning as part of the work, so it is priced from the start.
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.
Condensation inside a relined flue
Flue gases carry water vapor. If the flue surfaces are cold enough, that vapor condenses and runs down the inside of the liner.
Liner instructions explain that household chemicals from paints, thinners and detergents can combine with that condensate to form aggressive acids. Correct sizing and insulation keep the flue warmer and limit the problem. Liner makers also suggest bringing outside combustion air directly to the appliance where its instructions allow.
Our specialists consider condensation when choosing the liner size and insulation for your chimney, especially for appliances that run cool.
Choosing a cap for the relined flue
A cap keeps rain, debris and animals out of the new liner. Where a rain cap is fitted to a masonry chimney, the Florida Building Code sets its net free area at four or more times the area of the flue outlet.
A cap that is too restrictive can hold back the gases the new liner is meant to carry. Caps sold with a liner system are designed around its size.
We fit a cap that suits the liner and the chimney top, and explain how it is fastened.
