Hi, does this sound like it could work? i'll give you a little info on my situation first
i'm going to install a 5.5" liner in my 20' chimney.
there is not enough room for a insulation wrap. as is, the 5.5" will be slightly touching two sides of the chimney wall. I live in a remote location that does not have pour down insulation available. getting it shipped up here will cost at $100-200 per bag for a $60 bag of insulation.....so yeah.
I have lots of Roxul rock wool left over from home renovations, would it be a reasonable idea to tear it up into small pieces and simply pour/drop it down the sides of the liner? i am already planning on using it along with a sheet metal block off plate below so their will be something for the roxul to rest on as i pour it in the chimney.
Thoughts?
