What flue liner do I have?

[Sethy79]

Hi, I’ve recently bought a property that had a wood burner installed. I’ve removed the stove to make alterations to the hearth and have noticed the flue looks like it’s only a single walled 6” liner. I’m wondering how I can find out if this is an adequate liner that’s fit for purpose or not. The previous owner doesn’t have the paperwork and I’ve checked with hetas and it’s not been registered with them either. He had some building work done in 2014 and bought the property in 2012 and there was definitely no stove installed prior to his purchase. Any advice on how I can check if it’s ok or not is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

find a reputable chimney sweep - one associated with the National Chimney Sweep Guild (ncsg) - and have that professional inspect the system for safety and code compliance.
That makes you able to sleep well (and safely).

Also, our resident expert @bholler could give advice. For that to be efficient, please post some pictures.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll get onto a sweep straight away and see what they say. Thanks.
