I have a particular brand name in mind, but not really wanting to tag this thread with it until after this first question...
How difficult is it to install a liner in a chimney? I have been in HVAC service for 11 years, humping ladders and doing gymnastics and contortionist maneuvers in general the whole time.
The locals here who are prepared to sell me an insert are telling me 8 to 15 for the installation, and I don't mean hours...
What kind of termination is standard at the chimney cap?
If it is necessary to defer to the pros for the sake of the public bulletin board, then e-mail me privately with such considerations as requested.
bet you it takes 1 hour maximum, did a DV Insert recently and dropping the liner down was only a challenge right at the smoke shelf as it was a custom woodburner that had some weird round tube heat exchanger that divided up the exit throat of the woodburner. If it is a DV you will have to use the termination that it was approved with.
Since the house is considerably tighter as it relates to make-up air and proper drafting, do many of y'alls startups of these appliances check for the need for additional air, or for the need for an inducer atop the chimney?
Since pricing is not allowed on this website, I can't admit knowledge of what it is. But it may have something to do with the cost of installation.
