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 Sandalwood 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 Sandalwood home? Call (904) 920-5495 and we will size the liner.

Sandalwood is one of the named neighborhoods of Jacksonville. Sandalwood falls within Duval County.

How It Works

How chimney relining runs

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

Flues with bends in Sandalwood

Some chimneys change direction partway up. Rigid liner sections cannot follow an offset, and flexible liner can.

We prove the path in your Sandalwood chimney with a test piece before the liner is cut to length.

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.

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.

What the top plate does

The top plate is the part that holds the liner up. It sits on the crown around the flue opening, clamps the liner, and carries the whole weight of the liner below it, anchored to the masonry by sealant rated for heat or by masonry screws, per the kit.

Once the plate is fastened, the liner is cut flush with its collar and the cap goes on. A plate set on an uneven or cracked crown will not seal or sit square, which is why a broken top tile gets trimmed and the crown surface made good before it goes on.

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.

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.
