Its a simple brick enclosure about 25" X 16" outside dimensions.
This was a seasonal camp that I'm converting to year round.
What are my options and what are the most cost effective options as well.

Ive heard of the ballon sock method of insert a sock and inflate it with pressurized air, then they pour a masonry type liner, let it harden and remove the sock but was this called and how much does one cost?

Can I line the chimney with stainless?

I may do a pellet insert in the future but for now I would simply like to finish the chimney!
This was all found out when I put a 4'-0" chimney extension on with a firends father, I asked the father what to do he said he didnt know he always built chimneys with flues!
