Ok, so some of you know my story. Well, I'm not gonna try and not let this beat me! Anyway #1, I'm an idiot. This is a pic of my chimney at the roof. The flue on the left is my stove in which the SS liner is not cemented in and can be removed. So first question, should I remove the SS liner and inspect it before I go any farther? I say this because when I had the stove out, I noticed 2 golf ball size dents in the SS liner about 2-3 ft above the stove. That concerns me somewhat. My gut feeling is to just get a new SS liner and start fresh.
