Reasons for lining and/or insulating a chimney

When using a wood burning or multi-fuel stove

Insulating your chimney liner reduces tar and soot deposits thereby reducing the risk of a chimney fire.

Lining your chimney creates a continuous smooth chimney with less surfaces for tar or soot to condense onto. Tar that does form can flow directly back to the stove to re-combust as opposed to building up in the rough crevices of a masonry chimney.

Insulating your chimney liner increases the temperature of the flue gases, which in turn will tend to improve the draw of a chimney since warm air rises.

Lining your chimney will cure problems of smoke leaking out through cracks in a masonry chimney.

Lining your chimney will stop new tar from leaking out through cracks in the chimney or onto your stove.

If your chimney is very large then lining your chimney for use with a stove can be a safer option as flue gases in a large chimney cool very quickly resulting in a high level of condensates which are hard to remove when sweeping.

Containing the flue gases in a pipe of consistent diameter maintains the flow and velocity of the gases in the system - i.e. the flue gases will travel faster. This will reduce deposits (as the gases spend less time in the chimney and cool less) and will also improve the draw.
