What Is a Chimney Liner and Why Does It Matter?
A chimney liner (also called a flue liner) is a conduit inside the chimney that contains combustion products and directs them safely out of the home. The NFPA 211 requires all chimneys to have a liner in good condition.
Without a proper liner, heat can transfer to combustible materials causing house fires, and carbon monoxide can leak into living spaces. Charlotte NC homes built before 1990 frequently have damaged or missing liners that need replacement.
If you're unsure about your liner's condition, schedule a professional chimney inspection to assess the flue.
