Stainless liners are the standard way to make an old chimney safe. Here is how they work.
A stainless steel liner is a pipe, usually flexible, that runs the full length of the flue. It gives smoke a smooth, sealed, correctly sized path and protects the masonry from heat and acid. It is the most common way to fix a damaged flue and the usual partner for a stove or insert.
Liners come in different grades and thicknesses for different fuels, and they can be wrapped in insulation for better draft. The key to a good liner is matching it to the appliance and installing it with tight connections and a good top plate.
