Here at Lindemann Chimney Supply we pride ourselves on carrying the top chimney liner brands in the industry.  We carry BestFlex, Ventinox, DuraFlex, CHIM-LITE, Flexi-Liner and Heat-Fab Pipe. Within these types of pipe we carry these types of stainless steel chimney liners: 304 stainless; 316 stainless; 316Ti (Titanium) stainless; AL-29-4C Stainless and aluminum liners.

For woodburning applications 304, 316 or 316Ti are typically used. This type of stainless steel is acceptable for woodburning applications.

For coal burning applications, 316 and 316TI are typically used. These products have additional alloys that resist the acidic nature of the coal which contains some sulfur which becomes sulfuric acid when combined with moisture.

For oil burning applications type 316, 316Ti and AL-29-4C are used. It has some sulfur and nitrates that become sulfuric and nitric acid when combined with water.

Gas burning appliances typically take 316, 316Ti, AL 29-4C and aluminum alloys. The types of stainless steel that should be used depend on the specific application and the liner and/or appliance manufacturer’s installation instructions. Typically the AL 29-4C is used for higher efficiency gas appliances. 316 and 316Ti alloys are usually used for lower efficiency appliances and water heaters.  They are also used as a chimney liner for gas logs in a fireplace. Lower efficiency appliances such as water heaters can be used with aluminum chimney liners.

We can also get liner and components manufactured in oval chimney liner, square chimney liner and rectangular chimney liners.

If you are looking for the right type of pipe to reline a masonry chimney  - just check out our selection. We stock a variety of chimney liners from lightweight corrugated flexible chimney liners, to flexible liners with a smoothwall inside, to rigid stainless steel chimney liner pipe, to heavy flex interlock chimney liner pipe and we even carry aluminum chimney liner pipe for relining for specific types of gas appliance chimneys.

Lightweight Corrugated Flexible Chimney Liners

We have a variety of brands of lightweight corrugated flexible chimney liners. We stock BestFlex chimney liners in a .005” and .006” strip thickness. The seams of this pipe feature a 7-ply “Secure-Lock” ultra tight locking seam. We also stock DuraFlex Pro Chimney Liner that features a crimped seam. Ventinox Chimney Liner is a unique type of corrugated liner because instead of having a crimped or mechanical lock seam, the seam features a continuous weld which makes this liner leak proof. While all of the above liners are available in 316Ti, Ventinox features two types of stainless steel: Ventinox VFT in 316Ti stainless steel and Ventinox VG which is available in AL 29-4C. This material is great for relining gas flues. All of these corrugated chimney liners feature a lifetime warranty when installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions for the appropriate application.

Flexible Smoothwall Chimney Liner

A corrugated chimney liner calls for a reduction in the sizing tables for oil and gas applications. We have a hybrid liner that features a corrugated outer wall with an interlock flexible inside wall. This pipe is known as a “smoothwall” flexible chimney liner. We stock two different brands of smoothwall liner. BestFlex Smoothwall Chimney Liner is made with the latest machining technology and offers a lifetime warranty. DuraFlex SW Chimney Liner is easy to work with, utilizes Ventinox Components and features a lifetime warranty.

Heavy Flexible Chimney Liner

The best applications for a heavy flexible chimney liner is when a chimney needs to be relined for a hard-core woodburner. This type of pipe is constructed with a 4-ply interlock seam and is available in round, oval and rectangular configurations. This BestFlex Heavy Flexible Chimney Liner carries a lifetime warranty.

Oval Chimney Liners

We can ovalize a variety of lightweight corrugated chimney liner sizes right in our warehouse. We can obtain custom oval components built to your specifications. Heavy flexible chimney liners are also available in an oval configuration. These pipes also carry a lifetime warranty.

Square and Rectangle Chimney Liners

Many fireplaces are already sized so marginally that to install a chimney liner means compromising the draft. Square and rectangular chimney liners can often help to avoid the need for removing flue tiles to fit the equivalent round size. Sometimes, even after removing the tiles, the size can still be off. If you can go back in and reline the flue with the same size as the previous flue, then odds are it will draft as long as they didn't have problems previously.

Rigid Stainless Chimney Liner

Some people prefer the rigid stainless steel chimney liner. This pipe is smooth on the inside but has absolutely no flex to it. It should only be installed in a perfectly straight chimney. Sometimes this stainless steel rigid pipe is also used as a connector pipe or to pass through a code compliant thimble.

No matter what the type of liner you need for your situation, we have you covered. For more information on chimney liners please click here to contact us. Or, you can call 800-722-7230.
