The existing liner is removed if one is involved. By doing so, it enables us to install the proper flue size and allows the Golden Flue liner to adhere to the chimney casing.
A chimney former is temporarily installed in the casing and inflated to the proper flue size. A technique devised by Golden Flue spaces the chimney former away from the interior casing to assure proper lining thickness and to provide you with a better quality flue.
The bottom is temporarily sealed to confine the Golden Flue mix which is pumped into the chimney in a semi-liquid state. In addition, pumping the mix eliminates excessive walking across the roof. After a proper curing time the chimney former is deflated and removed.
The results are a one-piece highly-insulated Golden Flue liner with no seams to weaken at a later date. Due to the flowing of the mix all loose bricks, voids and cracks are permanently sealed. The structural strength of the chimney has been increased far beyond a masonry chimney. In older chimneys, the deterioration of the flue is stopped from the inside. The Golden Flue liner is so highly insulated that it will dramatically reduce water and smoke condensation which develops with the use of oil, gas and wood stoves. Golden Flue is ideal for use with modern high-efficiency oil and gas furnaces and boilers.
