Chimney Liner Services in Chicago
A working chimney liner is vital. A properly functioning chimney liner acts as a barrier between your home’s structure and the heat and corrosive byproducts generated by combustion. In other words, the liner keeps the heat from gases inside the chimney where it belongs, effectively preventing the chimney from overheating and causing a fire.
Most chimney liners have a life of 15 – 20 years, depending on the amount of use and abuse they are exposed to as well as the type of liner. How much time has passed since your last chimney inspection? Vertical Chimney Care will inspect your chimney and let you know if you are due for a chimney liner repair or a complete chimney liner replacement.
The Purposes of Chimney Liners
A functioning liner protects your home and family by preventing the heat transfer to combustibles, which can cause house fires.
Liners protect the masonry and your family from corrosive byproducts and lethal gases. Exposure to these increases health and fire risks, and damages the chimney structure.
The liner provides the right-sized flue for optimum efficiency. Incorrectly sized liners generate drafts and lead to dangerous creosote buildup that can cause a fire.
Chimney liners also enhance the draft efficiency of your chimney, allowing for smoother airflow and better combustion.
Three Types of Chimney Liners
Chimney liners are made from clay, aluminum or stainless steel. We provide Chicagoland with aluminum chimney liners for natural gas applications, and stainless steel chimney liners for wood-burning fireplaces.
