What to have ready before relining
A liner is sized from the appliance, so the first thing we ask for is what will burn at the bottom of it: an open fireplace, a wood stove, an insert, or a gas appliance, with the make and model where there is one. The manual or the listing label gives the collar size and any venting rules the liner has to meet.
Tell us why relining came up, whether from an inspection finding, a chimney fire or a new appliance, and whether the chimney has more than one flue. With that, the Lake Asbury visit starts with the right measurements in mind. New stove or insert going into your Lake Asbury home? Call (904) 920-5495 and we will size the liner.
Lake Asbury lies inland, over six miles from the coast. Lake Asbury sits about 19 miles from Jacksonville, measured directly.

How It Works
How our liner specialists reline a chimney in Lake Asbury
-
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
A new stove or insert in Lake Asbury
A stove or insert set into an old masonry fireplace needs a flue sized to its collar. The big fireplace flue above it is too large and cools the exhaust.
For stoves and inserts in Lake Asbury, we run a listed stainless liner from the collar to the top.

Pressing a round liner oval
A rectangular clay flue can be too narrow on one side for a round liner of the size the appliance needs. Flexible stainless liner can be pressed into an oval to fit, and liner makers allow it.
The catch is area. An oval has less cross-sectional area than the round liner it was made from, and the appliance sizing was based on the round figure. So after shaping, the oval's area is worked out again and checked against the appliance collar or the fireplace opening. If the oval comes up short, the answer is a larger starting diameter or tile removal, and never a smaller flue.
Where an aluminum liner fits, and where it does not
Aluminum liners have a narrow listing. The makers write them for Category I gas appliances, those fitted with a draft hood or listed for Type B gas vent, and the instructions rule out solid fuel, liquid fuel and gas appliances in Categories II through IV.
So aluminum is out for any flue that serves, or might later serve, a fireplace or stove burning wood. It can be the right choice for a gas appliance that matches its listing. Where the chimney's future use is uncertain, stainless keeps more options open, and we explain the trade.
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
Before a liner is ordered
Can relining be done in one day?
A plain liner in a straight, clean flue can go in within a day. Tile removal, insulation, crown repair or a new wall opening add time, and the estimate gives the schedule.
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.
