I have both an open hearth fireplace on my first floor and a wood stove in my basement.
My house was built to code back in 2002 when chimney liners for wood stoves were not required.
Now chimney liners are required for wood stoves placed in new homes.
Since I use my wood stove extensively in the winter months, I decided to minimize the risk of fire
by having a stainless steel liner placed in the wood stove?s chimney.
I gathered three quotes, one was half the cost of the other two, while the two others, who have been in business for a number of years were much higher but within $10 of each other.
Of the three, I had a much higher comfort level with Complete Chimneys after speaking with Matt and Dan.
I believe the materials they use, although similar to other companies, are of a higher quality.
The entire process took about 3 ½ to 4 hours. There was some tricky maneuvering that needed to be done in order to move the new liner down the chimney and finally attached to the adapter, but with Matt and Dan?s years of experience they always had a trick to help the process along. After placement of the liner, they filled the surrounding space, between the liner and terracotta (clay tile) inside the chimney, with insulation. The insulation is hand mixed and is specifically for chimneys.
Note: I didn?t go with the lower quote because I didn?t have the same comfort level that the job would have been done correctly or without damaging my existing fireplace. Also, for the lower price, I can?t imagine they intended to place insulation between the liner and the clay chimney tiles.
Finally, Matt and Dan, with Complete Chimneys, were great! They did an excellent job of installing, were neat and did not damage a thing. I am very comfortable that I picked the right team for the job!
