Sizing, Sealing and Installing Your New Liner
Our crew measures the fireplace or reads the appliance papers before a single liner length is ordered.
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.
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.
Checking the draft after installation
Installation is not finished until the connected appliances vent properly. Liner instructions call for a draft check after the work, with each appliance tested alone and together when they share a vent.
If the draft is poor, the cause is corrected before the appliance goes back into regular use. That might be a connection, a seal or a sizing question. The check is simple, but it confirms that the liner, the connection and the top work as one system.
Our team runs the checks the instructions describe and tells you the result before we pack up.
Permits and local requirements for relining
Liner instructions remind installers to check local building and fire requirements, and note that permits may be required before work starts. Local rules decide whether a permit applies to your job.
The installation also has to meet the building code in force, which in Florida is the Florida Building Code. That is where the lining, clearance and height rules above come from. Settling the rules first avoids delays once the liner has been ordered.
Our team tells you what applies to relining at your address before the work is scheduled.
