Liner facts our pros share in Lake Avalon
Three points our relining crew in Lake Avalon explains before a single part is ordered.
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.
Sizing a liner for an open fireplace
An open fireplace is sized by its opening. Option 1 of section R1003.15.1 calls for a round flue of at least one-twelfth of the fireplace opening area, a square flue of at least one-tenth, and a rectangular flue with a ratio of 2 to 1 or more of at least one-eighth.
We measure the opening, apply the rule that fits the proposed liner shape and write the numbers down for you. A liner that is too small for a large opening can leave smoke at the front of the fireplace, so the opening size decides the liner as much as the chimney does.
Relining inside the old tile or removing it
A stainless flexible liner can be installed within the existing flue tile, or the tile can be removed. The choice depends on how much room the proposed liner needs, whether insulation has to fit around it and whether damaged tile would obstruct it.
Removal adds labor and debris, so we explain why it is proposed and what it achieves before it goes on the estimate. Where the tile can stay, we say so, since leaving sound material in place keeps the job simpler.
When the lining can stay
Some inspections find a sound, continuous lining that suits the appliance and only needs cleaning. When that is the case, we say so and do not propose relining.
A recommendation to reline should come with a finding you can understand, not only the age of the chimney or the look of the brick from the street. If we find nothing that justifies a liner, your written report says that plainly, and the only work we quote is the work the flue actually needs.
