What goes into a liner job in Wadeview Park
What we check on liner jobs in Wadeview Park, and the source behind each check.
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.
Offsets and changes in direction
Chimney construction and offsets can change the size of the passage inside, sometimes well below the top. A flue that looks generous from the roof may narrow where it bends toward the fireplace or around framing.
The residential code also limits how far a masonry chimney with a clay liner may offset. We map the route, note any offset and plan a liner that passes it without crushing or kinking. A liner that has been forced around a tight bend is a liner that has lost area, and we would rather tell you about the bend now.
Where the insulation wrap stops
When a liner is insulated with a wrap, one manufacturer has the insulation run from the bottom of the tee, including the tee cap, and stop about 3 inches below the crown to allow for vertical thermal expansion.
Details like that decide whether the liner can move freely as it heats and cools. A wrap that runs too high can bind at the top plate, and one that stops too low leaves part of the flue bare. We install to the instructions line by line and note the insulation on your records.
Smoke at the start of a fire
Smoke that spills from the opening for the first minutes of a fire can point to a flue that is cold, too large or too short, though a blocked cap or a closed damper can do the same.
Relining with the right size and insulation helps when sizing is the cause. We check the simpler causes first, and we tell you if a liner would not solve it. Knowing when it happens, whether every fire or only in certain weather, helps narrow it down.
