Chimney Relining Services in Missouri

Examining the inside of your chimney can show how corrosive residue has damaged the flue. The original clay liner gets eroded or parts of it are even missing. Old chimneys might not even have a liner. Mortar and bricks are loose and falling, and moisture can leek through to the home’s interior walls.

As you continue using your chimney, more erosion will take place. This can lead to leaks in the flue, complete flue blockage, or possibly even carbon monoxide poisoning of the home’s occupants. Chimney issues can cause illnesses and even chimney fires.

Fortunately, the problem of flue deterioration can now be corrected without completely rebuilding your chimney. Heritage Air Duct Cleaning & Chimney Sweeps can completely reline your chimney and bring it up to standard.

What is a Chimney Liner?

Most of the chimneys that you see are made out of brick or stone. As a result, chimneys are not particularly flammable. However, the building materials around your chimney like wood, aren’t quite as tough. If too much heat escapes your chimney and finds its way to the walls around it, the probability of a chimney fire is likely. 

That’s why chimney liners were created to prevent this from happening. Chimney liners act as a conduit that protects the walls of your chimney and home while ensuring combustibles are removed from the chimney.

Chimney liners don’t just keep the walls around your chimney from catching fire. When you start a fire in your fireplace, the smoke goes through your chimney and leaves behind the byproducts of combustion. If there is nothing to prevent these gases from getting into the bricks that make up your chimney, these gases tend to eat away at brick and shorten the life of your chimney.

The Benefits of a Chimney Liner

Not all chimneys have liners. If you live in an older home, the chimney may have been originally built without a liner. If this is the case for your home, call us to help you choose and install the best chimney liner for your home.

Below are some of the benefits of a chimney liner. 

Protects Your Home From Fire Damage

One of the vital functions of a chimney liner is to keep the heat inside the chimney from reaching the combustible material outside it. For older chimneys with cracks in their masonry, it’s easy for the heat to escape on your second floor or the roof and start a conflagration.

Prevents Creosote and Moisture

Creosote is the worst enemy of chimneys everywhere. This substance is the unburned wood energy that gathers due to poor venting or wood that doesn’t burn thoroughly. Creosote is highly combustible and a leading cause of chimney fires.

A chimney liner prevents creosote from building up by helping with proper venting. It also stops water moisture from becoming trapped in the chimney, which is a significant danger because it will cause cracking when it freezes during winter.

Increases Your Home’s Energy Efficiency

Chimney liners form a layer of insulation inside a chimney that doesn’t reduce the downdrafts that can come down it during times when there is no fire in the hearth. This means less cold air getting into your home and forcing you to run your heater more often. 

Types of Chimney Liners

Below are some of the common types of chimney liners.

Clay Tiles

The most common type of chimney liner is clay tile. The benefits of clay tiles are that they are not as expensive as other types of chimney liners and they are readily available.  However, they are prone to cracking if they are heated too quickly.

Stainless Steel or Aluminum

These chimney liners are more durable than clay chimney liners and insulate better at a higher temperature. The Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) has approved many metal chimney liners when properly installed. The only downside of a metal liner is that it can be relatively expensive.

Cast-In Place Liners

Cast-in-place liners are cement-like products that are installed on the inside of your chimney. These liners are suitable for all fireplace fuels and can improve the structural integrity of your chimney. They can be difficult to install sometimes, which can make them costly.
