HEATSHIELD CHIMNEY LINERS
Chimney Savers is proud to offer our customers HeatShield® Cerfractory® relining services. Over time, chimney liners made of terracotta tile can crack and erode. The mortar joints between the tiles can also deteriorate. As a homeowner, one option for repair is to demolish the tile liner and reline your chimney using a stainless steel or cast-in-place chimney liner. This can be quite costly. In some cases, however, joints can be repaired using the HeatShield® Cerfractory® system to fill in the cracks and gaps in your flue. As a repair, HeatShield® has been proven to withstand moisture, corrosive flue gases, and temperatures in excess of 2900°F. It is also economical, potentially saving you thousands of dollars over any other safe repair. While HeatShield® is not an option for every chimney, we can guide you in the process of making a safe and practical decision.
