Hazards Of Having No Liner
There are some big risks involved with running a chimney that isn’t lined. First of all, your system becomes much more vulnerable to cracking and crumbling. The acidic gases produced by your fires breaks down the mortar, causing it to deteriorate and weakening your structure as a whole. This also leaves pathways for flames and gases to escape.
The more openings your chimney has, the higher your risk is for carbon monoxide exposure, which is responsible for countless deaths throughout the country every single year. Due to its colorless and odorless nature, carbon monoxide is very hard detect, making it a gas you definitely don’t want to mess around with. Minimize risk of exposure significantly by having your chimney lined right away.
Another risk involved with an unlined chimney is an increase in potential house fires. Your chimney liner protects your home from the extreme heat your fireplace produces and, without one in place, it only take a few hours for adjacent woodwork to catch on fire. This is a scary fact and one that should be taken very seriously.
Finally, a chimney with no liner simply isn’t as efficient. Air flow will suffer, creosote will build up at a more rapid pace, and your home and family will be at a higher risk of experiencing some hazardous situations. If you ask us, it’s not worth taking any chances! Call in our experts today. We’ll look things over and have you all set up and ready to go in no time. This burning season will be your best one yet!
