Chimney Liners
Why do you need a liner?
A liner is needed if your flue is damaged, missing or not the correct size for your appliance.
- A liner is similar to your car exhaust- Your cars exhaust takes burned fuel gases created from your engine and delivers it outside.
Why is it important?
Over time, the fumes leaking from a cracked exhaust (Chimney) pipe will damage surrounding components, and could even cause a fire. When they first come out of the engine (wood stove, fireplace), exhaust fumes are extremely hot, but cool gradually as they reach the tailpipe (flue) at the back of the vehicle (top of the chimney). If there’s a hole in the exhaust (chimney) close to the engine, these hot gases can leak out and blow straight at other components (framing) — causing heat damage and increasing the risk of fire.

Conclusion: A chimney and the flues in use deserve the same if not more attention than your vehicle. Your car can be relatively easy to inspect and repair before it becomes hazardous. Your chimney on the other hand is not. A chimney can take on many different sizes, shapes and fuels. Making it much more difficult to inspect, diagnose and repair. Leave it to an experienced certified professional chimney sweep to inspect and sweep your chimney.

Weather-proofing
Flashing and waterproofing applications prevent water from entering your chimney.
Common brick and majority of masonry materials are porous and will absorb water. As a result, moisture builds in the interior of your chimney and accelerates the deterioration process.
Waterproofing agents used on masonry chimneys are 100% vapor permeable. Therefore, they allow the chimney to breathe while preventing water from entering from the outside. Paint or clear sealers should never be used as a waterproofing agent. As a result of using them, they will trap water vapors and moisture inside the chimney causing further deterioration.
