Lovely weather for busting tiles When clay tiles are damaged or undersized, we often have to remove them to install a new liner system. We do this by attaching a metal plate to the end of rods on a half-horse drill and breaking the tile. We clean out the broken tile from the bottom and then move on to the next one. Depending on the condition of the tiles and how they were laid, the length and state of the chimney, the location of cleanout access and, of course, weather conditions, this can be anywhere from an hour job to a full day job.

DO NOT USE FOIL FLEX It’s amazing how many homes we go to with improper dryer venting. Foil flex venting is extremely common, even with dryers that have been professionally installed. However, they are not to be used and can potentially be a FIRE HAZARD. Please make sure you have proper venting before using any appliance.

When installing a unit into an exterior fireplace, we often wrap the firebox with ceramic insulation to prevent heat loss, pushing all the heat generated by the unit into the home rather than escaping. It also prevents cold outside air from coming in. This helps with the performance of the unit and improves efficiency.

With a simple dryer vent cleaning, we increased the airflow by nearly 1,000 feet per minute, and increased the temperature by nearly 12 degrees. This both improves drying times and increases the lifespan of the dryer. The Chimney Safety Institute of America recommends having your dryer vent serviced and inspected annually.

Many people don’t think about it, but it’s also important to have your gas unit serviced regularly. Your gas fireplace should have a nice blue flame to it. If it becomes a heavy yellow flame, that’s a sign that it’s not burning clean and should be serviced.

Benefits of an insulated liner system and damper block off plates: When installing a new unit with a liner system, we wrap our liners with a 1/2” ceramic insulation. This allows the flue gasses to stay warmer longer so they can evacuate the system more efficiently, leading to less creosote buildup and back-puffing issues. It also provides a zero-clearance to combustibles, meaning if your existing chimney was built improper, it won’t allow heat to transfer to any building material. We also use metal and ceramic insulation to block of the damper opening, so that no heat from the unit is lost by going up the chimney cavity. All heat is pushed back into the room, giving you optimum efficiency.
