Keeping the relined flue clean
A stainless liner is swept with a plastic bristle brush matched to its diameter, as the liner makers specify, because steel bristles can scratch the alloy. The cap comes off, the brush goes down, and the deposit collects at the tee cap or the insert, where it is emptied.
The liner still gets the yearly inspection that NFPA 211 sets out. Its size, alloy and length are on the installation record, so whoever sweeps it next in Julington Creek Plantation brings the right brush and knows what they are looking at. The tee cap or clean-out is the first place to look if the draw weakens between sweeps. New stove or insert going into your Julington Creek Plantation home?

How It Works
How our liner specialists reline a chimney in Julington Creek Plantation
-
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
Insulating a liner in Julington Creek Plantation
Some liners need insulation to meet their listing, either a foil-faced blanket or a poured mix. It keeps the exhaust warm and the heat away from framing.
When your Julington Creek Plantation chimney's clearances cannot be confirmed, the insulated system is the one we quote.

Matching the alloy to the fuel
Stainless liners are not all the same steel. Makers list 316-type alloys for wood, coal, oil and standard-efficiency gas appliances, and offer tougher, more acid-resistant alloys for high-efficiency gas appliances, which run cool enough to leave acidic condensate in the flue.
The fuel and the appliance's category decide which alloy its listing allows. A liner fitted for a wood stove and later asked to carry a high-efficiency gas appliance may not be listed for that job, which is why a fuel change is a reason to check the liner before relying on it. The alloy and its listed fuels are named before the liner is ordered.
When the flue is too big for the appliance
An oversized flue causes trouble too, though it shows up differently from an undersized one. Exhaust slows down in a passage much larger than the appliance's collar, loses heat to the extra surface, and condenses. The result is heavy creosote with wood and damp, acidic deposits with gas.
Liner makers set a floor and a ceiling for liner size: no smaller than the appliance collar, and in one maker's instructions no more than three times its area for solid fuel. A liner inside the oversized flue restores the right size without changing the masonry around it. The collar size and the liner size are shown side by side, so the fix is easy to check.
Chimney height and the liner listing
Liner systems are listed for a range of chimney heights, and one maker's instructions call for a chimney at least 10 feet high. Below that, the draft a liner can produce may not be enough for the appliance.
The code sets its own height rule at the roof: at least 3 feet above where the chimney passes through, and 2 feet above anything on the building inside a 10-foot radius (FBC R1003.9). Where the chimney meets neither rule, a liner alone does not fix it. A short chimney is pointed out before any liner is priced.

FAQ
Before a liner is ordered
Will the new liner show from outside?
Only the top plate and the liner cap show above the crown. They sit low, and the cap's screen and lid are the parts you will notice from the ground.
Can I use the new-customer 10% off on relining?
Yes. Ask for 10% off your first service when you book the estimate visit, and it is applied if relining is your first job with us.
