An in-depth write-up on the chimney inspection points
*A “lined” wood stove insert is a wood stove that has been inserted into an existing fireplace and has a stainless steel liner (pipe or flexible pipe material) that runs the entire length of the chimney flue and is attached to the exhaust port of the wood stove insert. The wood stove insert does not need to be removed in this situation for cleaning. An unlined insert does need to be removed for proper cleaning.
