Getting the liner right on Lake Davis/Greenwood chimneys
How we think through a liner for your Lake Davis/Greenwood chimney, from the appliance to the cap.
Liquid fuel and solid fuel never share a liner
One liner maker states that an appliance burning a liquid fuel must not be connected to a chimney liner used to vent a solid-fuel appliance. It is a firm rule written into the instructions, not a preference.
We ask what burns in each connected appliance before proposing a layout, and we keep each flue to the use its listing allows. If two appliances would conflict, we explain the options in writing, such as separate flues or a change of appliance, and leave the choice with you.
How liner length is measured
One manufacturer measures liner length from the bottom of the opening to the top of the chimney, then adds about six inches for the crown and the top hardware. Measuring on site avoids a liner that ends short of the top or leaves excess coiled inside the flue.
The measured length is listed on your estimate beside the product. On chimneys with offsets, the route can be longer than the straight height, so we measure the path the liner will actually follow rather than the distance from the ground.
Crown cracks and the relining job
Liner instructions call for needed crown repairs to be completed where cracks or deterioration are visible, because the top plate seals to that surface. A cracked crown under a new plate lets water into the chimney around the liner.
A crown repair is its own item on the estimate, with its own scope and its own explanation. We tell you whether it has to happen before relining or can be scheduled on the same visit, and what happens to the relining plan if you decide to postpone the crown work.
Fireblocking around the chimney
Spaces between a chimney and the floors and ceilings it passes through must be fireblocked, under the residential code, with noncombustible material, securely fastened in place.
When the attic or a ceiling opening lets us see that area, we note what is there. Missing or combustible fireblocking becomes a separate finding with its own recommendation, not part of the liner price. It matters to relining because the same area is where clearance to framing is usually checked, and the two findings are easier to understand side by side.
