An insert already in the fireplace
An insert that vents through a short pipe into the old fireplace flue leaves its exhaust to find its way up a passage far larger than its collar. The gases cool, creosote collects in a smoke chamber that is hard to reach, and cleaning means pulling the insert out.
A full-length liner from the insert's collar to the top of the chimney changes all three. The exhaust stays warm and moves at the speed the insert was designed for, and the flue can be brushed from the top. For the Bellair-Meadowbrook Terrace insert, the job covers the adapter, the liner and any work on the surround. What burns below the flue decides the liner, so have that ready when you ring (904) 920-5495.

How It Works
Sweep, prove, size, reline
-
Flue swept and proved
The old flue is cleaned and checked, and a test length or cone is lowered to confirm the liner will pass.
-
Liner sized to the appliance
The diameter comes from the stove collar, the insert or the fireplace opening, with insulation where the listing calls for it.
-
Liner lowered and connected
The liner goes down full height and joins a tee with a clean-out, or an adapter on the insert.
-
Top plate, clamp and cap
The top plate is fastened to the crown, the liner is clamped and trimmed, and a screened cap goes on.
Local Conditions
Cracked tile found during a sweep
A sweep in Bellair-Meadowbrook Terrace sometimes turns up cracked or missing flue tile. Hot gas and sparks can reach the brick behind a crack.
Relining with a listed stainless liner is one way to restore the flue, and the estimate explains the choices.

Proving the flue before a liner is ordered
A liner cut to length is not easily returned, so nothing is ordered on a guess. The proof run answers one question: will a liner of the planned size, with any insulation, pass from the top of this flue to the bottom?
It fails at bulging mortar joints, at tiles knocked out of line, and at offsets tighter than they look from either end. When the proof fails, the options are to break out the obstruction, change to flexible liner, or step down to a smaller rigid section if the appliance sizing still allows it. We say which option applies and why.
Old tile standing above the crown
Old clay tile can stand a few inches proud of the crown. If it is sound, one liner maker's instructions allow it to stay, with the top plate and cap fitted over it.
If it is cracked or crumbling, it is cut back flush with the crown using a chisel, taking care that pieces do not fall down the flue, and any that do are removed from the bottom. The cut surface and any cracks are filled with mortar so the top plate sits flat and seals against the masonry. The top is checked for level before the plate is set, whichever way it went.
Sizing a liner for an open fireplace
An open masonry fireplace has no collar to size from, so the liner is sized from the fireplace opening. The code sets the minimum flue area at one-twelfth of the opening for round flues and one-tenth for square ones (FBC R1003.15.1), and liner makers publish the same kind of ratio for their round liners.
The width and height of the opening are measured, the area worked out, and the liner diameter chosen to meet the ratio. A large opening can call for a liner bigger than the old flue can hold, and the options are explained when that happens.

FAQ
Relining questions from Bellair-Meadowbrook Terrace
Do you install chimney liners in Bellair-Meadowbrook Terrace?
We do. Describe the fireplace or stove and the reason relining came up, and the Bellair-Meadowbrook Terrace estimate visit is planned around it.
Does a relined flue still need its own cap?
The relined flue does not need one. The liner kit we fit includes its own cap, which fastens at the top plate. If the chimney has other flues, their caps are checked, and any change is noted.
