Tomorrow is Install Day!

in Chimneys & Flues

With the help of a few friends the SS liner will be installed tomorrow morning.

I shut down my coal stoker boiler as my coal supply was ended and removed the old flue pipe. Then vacuumed the remaining fly ash and cleaned the thimble.

Just for fun I stuck a mirror inside and got a view of a clear shot to the sky!

While we are up on the roof I will make a template up that will serve as a guide for a SS fluecap for all 3 flues. That will be a winter project !

Next will be to "unpipe" the old boiler and start the new install.

    remember to take care of the install people.

    plenty of water
    A cold one after they’re done is always appreciated
