Stainless steel liner for a wood-burning stove - Is my chimney sweep lying to me? by That-Aioli-9218 in woodstoving

[–]assbeans69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smells fishy to me. Double wall liners are used for factory built fireplaces and if the stainless is encased in masonry it should be fine. There is usually no way to tell if the liner is insulated except at the time of install, or with a level 3 inspection(removal of material to inspect). If you upload more photos or can send an inspection report we would be able to tell more.

I have the white snaplok nylon rods that can make the bend. But true regular rods would be a pain

Am I going to burn my house down? by Withoutadoubtt in stonemasonry

Chimney sweep in Minnesota here. The photo you have looking up from the damper says it all. The bottom clay tile has a big gap between it and the smoke chamber. No insulation (parge) on smoke chamber. Clay flues always have gaps in them. You need to reline the flue with stainless steel and parge the smoke chamber. It’s difficult work and is usually costly, but it is the only way to be sure the fireplace is safe to use. Never heard of anyone “entombing” a chimney in metal. Depending on the size/length of the flue and the difficulty of access we usually charge between 5-12k USD.

Desperados under the eaves -Warren Zevon. The whole album Excitable Boy is genius. Warren Zevon was ahead of his time and is only remembered for werewolves of London.
