Liner Advice - Is this a good one?

[Domestique]

Hello. First time poster here. Been running a Jotul F600 for about 5 years now in an 8x8 terracotta lined 30 foot interior chimney. Always have it cleaned each year and they suggest a liner. I’ve been putting that off but this years inspection report has me thinking about pulling the trigger.

Quote was for $3900 to knock out the terra-cotta and install an insulated liner. I think the price is reasonable for the job but what I’m not sure if is the quality of the liner they are suggesting. I tried to research it but I’m not finding much. It’s an NECS “smooth wall”. Here is a link to the brochure. Is this a quality product?

No it isn't good quality. The 2 ply smooth wall stuff is the least durable on the market

My mistake. It’s actually the crossover model in 316. Here is the info.

Hello, did you have this installed?
How did they install this from the top or the bottom?
