    Hi, I had a Bryant furnace & central ac unit installed 2 yrs ago. I've had condensation in the flue which was finally decreased by a tech adjusting the flue gases emitted by the furance. Last time, the service manager came out & looked things over. Told me when the job was estimated should have estimated a liner or told me I might need one as the new furnace is so small compared to old one. (700 sq ft home) He said that due to this, the company was going to install a liner & chimney cap without charge! Wow!! Furnace & ac seem to heat/cool well & don't run excessively/shut off too soon. Bills are certainly lower. How is that for good customer service?!

    They did what should have been done in the first place.
    Our salesman learned the hard way too, after our company had to put in liners after the sale.

    Dumb question: What's the purpose of a flue liner? To make the exhaust smaller?

    make flue smaller and keeps gases warmer to help prevent condensation inside chimney.
