Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Cracks in chimney liner (what causes and how to fix them)
A chimney liner is an important feature in the chimney. It is usually made of clay and ceramic and the main role is usually to direct the combustion products out of the chimney and in this case, the liner also protects the walls of the chimney from getting any form of rust. The liners have three main functions to the chimney. First of all, they cushion the entire home through the regulation of optimal heat within the home. They also protect the walls of the chimney from being corroded. They help to reduce the cases of dangerous gases from getting back into the home. Liners do give a right flue especially for the efficiecincy of certain appliances such as the stoves and gas. When the incorrect size of the liner has been used, chances are the creosote is likely to build up and this will eventually lead to the leakage of carbon monoxide.

The chimney liners normally come in 3 dimensions; the clay, tile and metal types. In most cases, people prefer the clay type since they are cheaper and can be easy to maintain compared to others. However they cannot absorb heat and distribute it as required within the chimney. This is in fact one of the leading causes of cracks in the chimney liner. Another cause of the chimney liner crack is when there is lack of skilled workmanship when it comes to the chimney repairs. This is the reason why it is always better to call on the experts whenever you want to clean or maintain a chimney. The liner has to be sealed tightly in order to safeguard the efficiency from the chimney.

Gaps in the flue tiles can also lead to cracks within the chimney liner. In this case, they have to be sealed with the use of mortar and repairs have to be done in good time so as to prevent more cracks. Other causes of cracks include the sudden chimney fires, or lightning. When this occurs, it is important to call on the services of the chimney sweepers within the shortest time possible to get everything fixed. The cracks can always lead to major health risks especially when they permit the dangerous gases to come into your home. With the cracks, it's possible for creosote to escape through them and this can be much dangerous since the fire cannot be contained in the interior part of the flue.

The cracks will also lead to the loss of heat efficiency, they simply accumulate excess air within the chimney and this makes it harder for the gases to freely move up and down. It is therefore important to have the cracks fixed in the right time possible. It is also possible to have the chimney flue replaced depending on the condition of the crack. The chimney sweep will first carry out an inspection after which he can formulate the right process depending on the magnitude of the problem.
