Offsets and bends in the flue

Not every flue runs straight. Offsets carry them around beams, a second fireplace or a change in the roofline, and those bends decide which liner can be used. Rigid sections need a straight path, while flexible liner bends through offsets that rigid pipe cannot follow.

At a tight bend, a round liner may need to be pressed oval to pass, which changes its area, so the size is checked again after shaping. The offsets found when your Penney Farms flue was proved are recorded. A long run may need two lengths joined with the maker's connector, and you are told where that joint falls.

How It Works

From proof run to capped liner in Penney Farms

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 Penney Farms

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 Penney Farms 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.

Joining a liner to a fireplace insert

An insert sits inside the fireplace with its flue collar pointing up into the smoke chamber. A stove adapter from the liner maker fits onto that collar and clamps to the bottom of the liner, giving a sealed connection from insert to cap.

Where the collar and the flue do not line up, a listed elbow at 30, 45 or 90 degrees carries the liner across. The insert's own manual sets any extra rules for its connection, and those come first. The damper frame may need to be cut back to let the liner through, which is listed as its own step. The insert is then set back in place and its surround refitted.

The smoke chamber below a fireplace liner

For an open fireplace, the liner's lower end starts above the throat, and the smoke chamber below still has to guide smoke from the wide firebox into the smaller liner opening. That chamber needs sound, reasonably smooth walls to do it.

Stepped brick, open joints or missing mortar in the chamber slow the smoke and let heat into the masonry, and a new liner above does not change that. The relining inspection looks at the chamber for this reason. Where the walls have failed, smoke chamber repair is listed with the liner, so the new flue gets a clean feed from below.

FAQ

Relining questions from Penney Farms

Can you reline a chimney that has bends in it?

Yes, with flexible liner, which follows offsets that rigid sections cannot. The flue is proved first to make sure the liner and any insulation will pass the bends.

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.
