I have an chimney for a oil furnace, about 20 years old, with a few cracked tiles. The top two tiles are cracked and one down by the furnace has a hairline crack. If it were just the top two I could have them replaced probably, but the one down by the bottom can't be removed or replaced. So although I don't think the situation poses a fire hazard (I suspect the tiles have been cracked for a long time), I'm looking at getting it relined with a stainless steel liner. Anyone have any experience with this or other relining options?
One quote for a new one came in at $1500... chimney is 6" and I'd say about 25' or something in that range. Had heard from someone else that a liner might be $500-$600 in parts. This same company quoting said $600 or so when first mentioned, but after coming to the house quoted $1500. I don't doubt the company since they are an honest outfit and fair in their pricing. Have had lots of work done by them.
Thanks in advance for any help or thoughts...
