We bought a used Fireview and are going to run it through our existing wood masonry fireplace. It will stand just in front of the fireplace on the hearth. We are new to the house but the fireplace has been well maintained and was cleaned last year. We've been using it since November 2-3 times/week.
I know I could simply run a pipe partway up and let it go but I'll feel better if I line it all the way to the top with stainless steel (and yes, I know, this is overkill, but it makes me feel better, lol).
Here are a couple of pics of the chimney from the outside. The part that throws me off is the two clay tubes coming off the top. There is only one flue and the fireplace is the only thing on it (hot water is electric and oil burner runs through flue in 250 year old central chimney).
If I do a flexible liner, how do I attach it at the top? And to install it, do I feed it down from the roof? I had thought of pulling it up through but again those two clay tubes are giving me pause.
Thanks so much,
Mary
