Finances have delayed install but getting ready. Question is as I look up my chimney it appears there are 2 supports running parallel to one another just above the smoke shelf in what appears to be the beginning of what I think is 8 x 13 clay tiles. About mid way up( Will get up there today to measure exactly). Is this common and how hard will it be to pull the 6 inch liner which I want to wrap. The opening between the rebar appears greater than the narrow width of the clay tile. Hope I am clear. Weird how all installers I have spoken to don't want to wrap it but that's what I want. I see no mention of these supports or rebar etc. anywhere these discussions. Perhaps I missed it. Thanks for ant help
