Reasons to Address Your Flue Liner:

You may have any of these reasons for relining your chimney:

  • To repair damage to the chimney liner caused by a chimney fire, water damage, lightning strikes or simple settling of the home.
  • To upgrade older chimneys which were constructed without chimney liners. This is incredibly important for the safety and enjoyment of your system.
  • To replace worn, deteriorated liners that may allow smoke, creosote, or condensation to seep through the chimney walls.
  • To properly size the chimney for a new appliance (for example: converting from oil to gas heat).
  • Proper sizing–chimneys often need to be resized to perform properly. If an over-sized fireplace flue is used to vent a wood stove, excessive creosote and tar glaze may result. Additionally, the wood stove will not perform as well as it should if the flue is too big or too small.

When not met, there are difficulties with lighting the fire, maintaining the fire, smoke & draft, and even the clearance to combustibles (meaning a higher risk of a home fire).
