Have you seen these liners burned through in the absence of a chimney fire in the field while doing cleanings, inspections, etc?

Have you seen these liners burn through at these hot spots in the absence of a chimney fire in the field while doing cleanings, inspections, etc?
Well i have seen ones burnt through with no evidence of a chimney fire. I cant say if there was one or not just that i didn't see evidence of one. And the customer did not know of one. But i see evidence of chimney fires lots of times when the customer had no idea

Yes it would leave evidence when it happened but that may have been a year or more before i was there so i have no way of knowing. All i can say is that i saw no evidence of a chimney fire. There is no way for me to know for sure whether they did or not. Why are you asking?

I'm probably just being a worry wort and that probably explains all my questions. I have no reason to think my liner is in bad shape-can't see any problems with 2 ply liner seperating or anything. I love being on this site, but find I can freak myself out...for no good reason.. Thanks again

Yeah just keep an eye on it and if you are worried have it scanned with a camera every few years.
