A stainless steel chimney liner provides an enclosed space for smoke and other fumes from a fire to be exhausted to the outside of your home. Many older homes with brick chimneys often did not include a liner. Without a liner, soot, creosote and other deposits can quickly build up, which requires more frequent cleanings. By adding an insulated liner, you will cut down the speed at which deposits build up, while also creating a better draft.

Deciding Between a Rigid and a Flexible Stainless Steel Chimney Liner

When you are installing a stainless steel chimney liner, like those available on our website, here at Copperfield Chimney Supply, you need to decide between rigid and flexible styles. Rigid styles are ideal when you only have one story to run the chimney and have no corners to go around. Flexible liners are better suited when lining the chimney for two or more stories or when you have corners to navigate the liner around.
