How a New Flue Liner Gets Planned in Temple Terrace

Every stage of the relining is explained to you before the first tool comes out.

When a bigger flue works against the appliance

A larger liner is not automatically a better one. Liner makers warn that high-efficiency appliances with cooler flue gases need correctly sized liners, because an oversized passage can lead to condensation and poor venting.

Cooler gases moving slowly through a big flue lose heat before they reach the top, and moisture can condense on the way. The result can be weak draft and deposits.

Our team sizes the liner to the appliance first and to the chimney second, and explains the choice in plain terms.

Clearance between the chimney and wood framing

Masonry chimneys inside the house or within an exterior wall keep a 2-inch airspace to combustible framing under Florida's code, and chimneys standing entirely outside keep 1 inch.

There is an exception for chimneys fitted with a lining system listed and labeled to UL 1777 for use in contact with combustibles, installed to its instructions. On older homes, that exception can matter. Some older homes have framing or subfloor tucked tight against the brick, which is why the check matters on relining jobs.

Our specialists check the clearances they can reach and explain how the chosen liner listing relates to them.

Older chimneys built without a lining

Some older chimneys were built with no flue lining at all. BIA's historical chimney guidance shows that an unlined chimney called for an 8-inch nominal wall, twice the thickness of a lined one.

Today the Florida Building Code requires masonry chimneys to be lined. An unlined flue is therefore a question to settle before the fireplace is used again. Relining is often the simplest way to bring such a chimney up to that requirement without rebuilding it.

We check how your chimney was built and explain the lining options that fit its size and condition.

Why relining is a job for experienced installers

Liner makers state that their liners must be installed by an experienced professional familiar with heating appliances and chimneys. The work combines sizing, preparation, routing, insulation and sealing.

A mistake in any one of those steps can leave the system outside its listing even when the finished top looks tidy. That is also why a relining estimate should list each step rather than a single line for the liner.

Our specialists follow the instructions for each liner we install and explain every step, so you know what was done inside the chimney as well as on top.
