What goes into a liner job in Airport North
Worth reading before you approve a liner for your Airport North home.
How far a clay lining is meant to run
For clay flue liners, section R1003.12 of the residential code calls for installation to ASTM C1283, running from at least 8 inches below the lowest inlet, or from the top of the smoke chamber on a fireplace, to a point above the enclosing walls.
When we judge an old clay lining, gaps in that run, missing sections or tile that stops short of the top all count as findings. We note where each one sits in the flue, because their position and number help explain whether a repair or a full relining is the sensible answer for your chimney.
Masonry repairs that must come first
A liner hangs inside the chimney, so the chimney has to be structurally sound. One maker's instructions say that where masonry or mortar joints are missing, loose or cracked, repairs must be made before the liner is installed.
We list that masonry work separately and in order, so you can see what has to happen first, why it has to happen and what it involves on its own line. Some repairs can be done on the same visit as the relining, and others need time before the liner goes in. The estimate says which.
Keeping the product information
Listing details only help later if someone can identify the product. We leave the product name, size, length and insulation details with you, along with the completed scope.
A future sweep, inspector or buyer can then check the system against its instructions instead of guessing what was installed and why. Keep the papers with the appliance manual, since the two answer most questions together.
The fireplace damper area and a new liner
Relining a fireplace flue has to deal with the damper area at the bottom, where the liner passes through or connects. Whether the old damper stays, is removed or is replaced by another closure depends on the listed system and the fireplace.
We explain the plan for that area in the estimate, so nothing about it is decided on installation day. If the fireplace will need a different way to close the flue afterward, that is written down too.
