Converting a fireplace to gas

Switching a wood fireplace over to a gas appliance? The gas unit's instructions set the venting, and a clay flue built for wood smoke tends to be far too big for gas exhaust. That leads to condensation inside the flue.

Our specialists size a liner to the gas appliance's instructions and fit one made for gas exhaust, sealed at the top. The gas line itself is a gas contractor's work, and your quote says who handles it. The liner and the appliance hookup are planned together, so nothing is missed. Talk to our pros about lining for a gas conversion in Fanning Springs by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Wood heat and deposit in the liner

Heating your home in Fanning Springs with a wood insert means long fires for the liner, and more deposit than an occasional fireplace gives it. Our pros size the liner so the flue stays warm, insulate it where the listing calls for it, and set a sweep schedule that keeps deposit from building up in the new liner.

How It Works

Test piece first, then the full liner in Fanning Springs

  1. Read the appliance

    The rating plate and manual come first, then the flue is measured and inspected.

  2. Sweep and prove the path

    After a sweep, a test piece is run down the flue to confirm the liner will pass.

  3. Wrap, feed and connect

    The liner is insulated where needed, fed down, and connected at the bottom.

  4. Seal the top, explain break-in

    The top plate and cap go on, the draft is checked, and you get break-in steps.

Full-length liners for wood inserts

Smoke leaves a wood-burning insert through a collar at the top. Connecting that collar to a full-length liner, running to the top of the chimney, keeps the smoke in a flue sized for the insert instead of spreading into the large clay flue the fireplace had.

The smaller flue stays warmer, drafts better and collects less deposit. Our pros size the liner to the insert's collar and its instructions, fit the connection at the bottom and seal the top.

The insert's manual may also call for insulation on the liner, and that's included where it applies. Everything is priced before the insert goes in.

What cracked tiles let through

Clay flue tiles keep heat, smoke and moisture inside the flue. When they crack, shift or lose their joints, heat reaches the brick around them, smoke finds its way into the masonry, and in some chimneys it can reach framing nearby.

Tiles crack from chimney fires, from years of heating and cooling, and from settling. Once they're broken, they can't be patched from the inside in a way that lasts.

Our specialists recommend relining with a continuous stainless liner that doesn't depend on the old tile, and until that's done, the fireplace stays out of use. The reason is written on your quote.

Condensation in an oversized flue

Gas exhaust carries water vapor. In a flue that's too large or too cold, the exhaust cools before it leaves, and the water condenses on the flue walls.

That moisture carries acids that eat mortar joints, crack tile and stain the chimney from inside, showing up as white crust and damp patches that look like a rain leak. A liner sized to the appliance keeps the exhaust warm enough to leave as vapor.

Any flue serving a gas appliance is checked for condensation damage, and the new liner is sized to stop it. The appliance's own instructions set the size.

FAQs

Relining, answered in short

Can a liner go through a bent flue?

A flexible stainless liner can pass most offsets. Our specialists prove the path with a test piece first, so you'll know before anything is ordered.

Why is my water heater flue crumbling?

It may be too big for the water heater, especially after a furnace change, so the exhaust condenses inside. A liner sized to the water heater stops it. Talk to us about it in Fanning Springs at (352) 675-6366.
