How we handle chimney relining in Catalina
Notes from our Catalina liner installers, tied to the code and the product instructions.
An insulated flue warms up sooner
Insulation is not required for every liner, but manufacturers recommend it for good reason. An insulated system warms quickly, which helps the draft establish itself at the start of a fire and reduces condensation on the flue surfaces.
When both options are allowed for your chimney, we price the insulated and uninsulated liner side by side. The choice stays yours, with the trade-off written down. For an appliance that runs cool or a chimney on an outside wall, we explain why the insulated option may be worth it.
Old clay tile at the top of the chimney
A clay tile that protrudes above the chimney does not have to be removed if it is in good condition. If it is not, one manufacturer describes chipping it flush with a hammer and cold chisel, keeping the pieces out of the flue, and filling cracks and uneven surfaces with mortar before the top kit goes on.
We show you which case applies to your chimney before the job starts, and the trimming, if any, appears on the estimate. Leaving sound tile in place is often the tidier result.
Chimney height limits in liner instructions
Liner instructions set limits on the chimneys they cover. One stainless flexible system, for example, calls for a chimney at least 10 feet high and no more than 100 feet.
A short chimney, or an unusual one, may need another product or approach. We check the height against the product before recommending it. Single-story homes with low chimneys are where this comes up, and the estimate explains any product change it forces.
Lowering the liner without damage
A flexible liner is guided down the chimney, sometimes with a pulling cone and rope from below while it is fed from above. Forcing it past a tight spot can tear insulation or crush the liner.
We take it slowly and stop if the liner binds, rather than pushing through a restriction nobody expected. If the route has to be reconsidered, you hear about it before anything is cut, along with what the change means for the scope.

Relining answers for Catalina homeowners
Not seeing your question? Our Catalina liner team will answer it by phone.
Will relining fix a fireplace that draws poorly?
It can when the flue size or temperature is the cause. Poor draw can also come from a blocked cap, a closed damper or a short chimney. We check those first and recommend relining only when it answers the actual problem.
Will you take out my old metal liner?
If it is being replaced, yes. We remove it, check the flue behind it and haul it away, and the removal is listed separately on the estimate.
