The chimney flue is the interior shaft that vents smoke as well as gases which are produced by burning a fire in the fire place.

Adding a chimney liner or relining your chimney can help protect your flue from damage and protect against fires. The 3 major types of liners are metal, clay, and cast-in-place liners.

Metal liners are are extremely versatile, readily available in stiff or flexible versions, and most any kind of house can accommodate them.
Clay tile liners are one of the most common kind of chimney liner. The majority of older houses have clay liners. They are relatively cost-effective, but require routine maintenance to see to it that flue tiles do not fracture, split, or break.
Cast in place liners are a light material similar to cement that is installed inside the chimney for a seamless flue. These types of liners tend to be hard to. install and expensive. With time, they can begin to develop cracks and require relining.
Our pros can help determine the most effective choices for your residence.
The chimney crown is really important. It works as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your whole chimney. This protects your flue and chimney from rain and various other elements.
When the chimney crown gets fractures or ends up being damaged at all, it enables rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create serious damages to the whole chimney if not repaired. When found early, standard repair services can be made to prevent issues from happening.
If cracking in the chimney crown is small, the splits can be loaded with patch and a water-proof sealant can be used on top. This will safely prevent water from getting in.
In circumstances where there is much more substantial damage to the crown, it might be necessary to rebuild it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild just the crown. This will secure the chimney for a lot more years. It is very important to have a professional chimney repair inspect the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make certain all areas are safe.
A chimney cap protects your home in lots of ways. It keeps rainfall, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fire place and also protects against hot sparks and embers from flying out and into your roof. You ought to never run your fire place or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are made from galvanized or stainless steel, light weight aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or set up a new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
Many people confuse the chimney damper with the flue. The flue is the inside of the chimney that smoke journeys through. The damper is the component of the chimney that closes off air flow to the outside. When a damper comes to be old, it requires fixing. Normally fixing or replacing the existing old metal damper can be expensive.
It's better to set up a top sealing damper. They are less expensive, and every reliable. A top sealing damper will keep cold drafts and unwanted weather outside. A substantial amount of air flow can leak in through the chimney from the exterior, making your house feel cooler in the winter season. This can easily add up to hundreds of dollars annually in extra heating expenses.
