Getting a stove fitted without flue liner

[TinchyBaby]

Has anyone done this? Im based in Ireland and a local stove company has advised against getting a flue liner. I heard this before from another person who also advised against it. I can't remember the exact reasons but something along the line of they aren't necessary and you can't clean them properly during a chimney clean.

Every other company recommends them and charging a fortune for it.

I looked into this in my old property, you only need the chimney lined if you are having an open fire fitted. If you're having an insulated flue pipe all the way from the stove to the top its not necesary.

If your chimney isn’t lined it means noxious gasses can permeate the bricks and possibly into the rooms adjacent to the chimney breast.

We ordered our liner off the internet and got a builder to fit it. The firms who sell stoves are really expensive.

Our installer did a smoke test thing and reckoned the lining in the chimney was fine and we didn't need a flue liner as well. He popped round to the neighbour's too to check.

it's been fine without.

Ah, if your chimney liner is intact it’s fine!

why don't you go to the stove company and ask? I had a woodburner and stove liner and was told it was safety.Tip of the week ... get a hood on the top of the chimney to avoid rain coming in and corroding the stove.
