Chimney Liner Kits??? Just Bought Englander 30 NC

[Hiram Maxim]

I just ordered a Englander 30 NC per thanks to the folks here on this wonderful forum.

Its going inside the fire place.



I have a chimney 13' tall from floor to chimney top. I will have to add a little length above the cap to make a total of at least 15' of chimney per the Englander Manual.

I was going to go with a 6" Flex liner directly from stove to the cap.


My questions .......


1 Do I need an adapter?

2 What should the blocker plate be made from?

3 Who makes a taller cap extension?

4 My flue is Square 11 1/2" X 11 1/4" ID and 13" x 13" OD

5 What Liner Company (They all have terrible unfriendly user websites)

6 What length of liner will I need? The stove hight will be 28.5" high (6" legs)


Can some one point me in the right direction?

Special thanks to Corie & Brother Bart

thank YOU HIRAM MAXIM

They just take the orders and then the stuff is shipped from Olympia Chimney Supply.

Woohooo!! I believe you'll want to switch to rigid pipe about a foot or two before going through the top chimney plate. You won't get a tight seal with flex pipe and it would list to one side. The stainless top plate will have a lip on it which will fit snug to the rigid pipe. And then a rain collar will be above that. Then finally the cap on top. All are designed for rigid pipe.
