in the same direction of the exhaust flow. The Flex Connector should always be
installed with the "cup" end towards the top of chimney. Under no circumstances
should this be reversed. The DuraFlex Flex Connector may also be used to utilize
lengths of Flex Liner that are left over at the end of previous job.
The chimney liner should be inspected by a qualified chimney inspector or licensed
prior to each heating season. When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other
organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. As a result,
creosote residue accumulates on the chimney liner. When ignited, this creosote
makes an extremely hot fire. If you are burning solid fuel, the chimney liner system
needs to be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season, to
determine if a crosote or soot buildup has occurred. If creosote or soot has
accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
To remove creosote and soot, use a wire or poly chimney brush. The size of the brush
should be the same diameter size as the liner or up to 1/8" larger. Thoroughly brush
the liner to remove any buildup that may have occurred. To access the liner, remove
the top portion of the cap by removing the screws on the legs. Be sure to reattach
the cap after cleaning liner.
