Flexible flue liner

[Backboiler]

I have been asked to do a quote on fitting a ss flexible flue liner in an existing chimney but I have never done one or been shown how to fit one. Customer is wanting a gas stove. How difficult a job is it. Can anyone give me a few pointers or post a good link please?

It is a brick chimney. Its a grade 2 listed building so the customer asked if the chimney pot can be placed around the terminal after fitting. Is this ok?

thanks all

i agree with desrob, call in someone to help you/keep you right on the job, sharing the cash is better than sharing a prison cell

Could this be moved to the GSR forum?

Remember to ask if he has had chimney swept ! had this years back customer told us it had been done, OK down go's liner! loud shout ! customer running out of house follow'd by black cloud, Think it took him a week to clear up soot.

Oh Dear
Reminds me of pulling the liner out of a BBU many years ago.
Unfortunately the flat was part of a house and the tugged liner was for the other flat.
Soot everywhere, it took two days to clean the place.
The tenants were pragmatic but I couldn't have felt more embarrassed, especially as they were so good about it.
Thank goodness for Interflora!
