Products: Chimney Liner, Flue Liner, Metal ChimneyInside your chimney there is a passageway for products of combustion to leave your home when you operate your furnace, fireplace, or wood stove. This passage way is called a 'flue.' Sometimes your flue develops a problem that allows these dangerous gases to enter your home instead of exiting the chimney at the roof. When this happens, you have a serious problem which needs to be corrected. Frequently, a flue liner can be inserted into the chimney to contain the combustion products and help them leave your home safely. At Four Seasons Chimney Service, we have been installing metal chimneys for a very long time and would be glad to speak with you about which chimney liner might be best for your home.  These are some photos we took of a flue liner installation for one of our customers. They should give you an idea of what we do. Although we prefer to install a flue liner on a sunny spring afternoon or a cool summer morning, we are prepared with proper equipment to work in all types of weather. After all, we are Four Seasons Chimney!
A Summer Flue Liner Installation ~ with a view!Four Seasons Chimney Service not only works on single family homes such as the one seen above, we also work on larger complexes throughout the metropolitan Boston area. As you try to keep your gaze off the Boston skyline, you will notice that this project requires installing a number of metal liners in various chimneys. 
Overview of a Chimney Flue Liner InstallationThe home below has a damaged flue liner. Four Seasons Chimney Service will replace the liner with a metal liner. 
The chimney liner is brought to the roof top. You will notice that the flue liner is a single, continuous piece. 
A section of the flue liner rests on a lower roof waiting to be inserted into the chimney. 
This metal chimney flue liner will be surrounded by insulation after insertion into the chimney flue. 
The chimney liner is not heavy and easily adapts to bends in the chimney flue as the chimney repair continues. 
As the chimney liner is inserted from above, there is an assistant below who is assisting the flue liner installation.
The metal liner itself has now been lowered into the chimney flue. 
Four Seasons Chimney Service prepares the insulation which will surround the newly lowered metal chimney liner. 
The insulation for the metal liner is prepared on the ground and then brought to the rooftop. The insulation will be placed around the flue liner. 
The insulation is positioned around the metal liner in the chimney flue as part of the chimney repair and chimney restoration. 
Upon completion of inserting the metal flue insulation, a chimney cap is placed on top of the chimney. A chimney cap provides additional protection from water entering the chimney and damaging it. Many chimney repair projects conclude with the addition of a chimney cap because of the additional protection it affords the flue liner. 
Four Seasons Chimney Sweep takes pride in not leaving behind a mess after the installation of a chimney liner in the flue. 
The finished project does not show the newly installed metal liner which is hidden just under the chimney cap.
