What is a chimney liner and does my Mosheim home need one checked?
A flue liner is the inner lining of a chimney. It contains the heat and gases as they travel up, and it protects the surrounding masonry or framing from them. Liners can be clay tile, metal or cast-in-place, depending on the home and how it was built.
Over time a liner can crack, corrode or shift. Heat, moisture and creosote all take a toll, and a damaged liner lets heat and gases reach places they should not go.
The flue check that comes with a sweep and inspection looks at the condition of the flue so you are not guessing about what is behind the soot.
Older homes may have clay tile liners that have cracked with age, while newer homes may have metal liners that can corrode. Either way, it helps to know what is inside the chimney.
A liner in good shape is one of the quiet reasons a chimney lasts, so it is worth a look at least once a year.
What is included in the $99 visit in Mosheim?
The chimney sweep and inspection starts from $99. We sweep the flue and check each main part.
- The flue
- The firebox
- The damper
- The cap and crown
If we find something that needs more than cleaning, we explain it and price it before any work starts. You decide whether to go ahead, and there are no surprise add-ons.
Because the visit covers the flue along with the firebox, damper, cap and crown, you get a full picture instead of a piece of one.
How does fuel choice affect a Mosheim chimney?
What you burn shapes what your chimney needs. Dry, seasoned hardwood gives a hot, clean burn and less residue. Green wood, softwood scraps and anything damp produce heavy smoke and thicker creosote. Gas logs leave little soot but still depend on a clear flue and a working damper.
If you use more than one fuel, or switch between them over the years, the chimney deserves a fresh look. A flue that was fine for gas may need attention if you now burn wood, and the reverse is also true.
A yearly visit keeps you informed as your habits change, so the chimney always matches how you use it.
The best way to choose what to burn is to look at what your chimney was built for. A yearly inspection tells you whether the flue is in good condition for your fuel, and it can help you decide on dry wood, gas logs or a mix.

Top 3 Reasons to Sweep your Chimney
The importance of yearly chimney inspections and sweepings cannot be understated, as they are the one true way to minimize the likelihood of a chimney fire sparking in the first place. The fact is that clean chimneys simply don’t catch fire.
- Prevent Chimney Fires
- Protect Your Health
Breathing the fumes from gas or solid fuel fires can be dangerous—or even fatal. - Avoid Smoke Damage
If a chimney is not cleaned regularly, soot will accumulate around the flue. This makes it difficult for the flue to draw the smoke upwards and can cause the smoke to enter your room. This soot will leave a black film around your hearth and soil any furniture, carpeting, or nearby decor. Smoke can also leave black stains around your chimney, which can be difficult or sometimes impossible to remove.
What Degree of Creosote is in Your Chimney?
A buildup of creosote is the main reason why it’s important to have your chimney cleaned and inspected annually, but did you know that there are three degrees, or stages, of creosote?
Soot: While not dangerous, soot is flammable and spreads easily, leaving dirt stains in your home and potentially causing respiratory illnesses.
Creosote flakes: If soot isn’t addressed in a timely manner, over time it can morph into larger flakes, which are highly flammable and more difficult to remove.
Tar creosote: Severe disrepair. At this stage, the creosote coalesces to form a thick, extremely flammable paste along the walls of the chimney. The tar releases gasses, which remain in the chimney flue until a fire is lit. At that point, the gasses as well as the tar will catch fire almost immediately.
Chimney Fire Causes
Factors that increase risk of chimney fires include:
- Failing to have your chimney swept often enough, which can lead to soot buildup
- Blockages such as soot buildup, animal nests, or bits of foliage in your chimney that can restrict air flow
- Burning wet or unseasoned wood, which increases the production of creosote

Professional and polite company-I was able to get in the schedule the following week of my initial request for service. My tech was Conner and he did a great job. Going to have them back to repair the fireplace gas line.

Can't say enough good things about this company. James is extremely easy to communicate with, and is glad to answer any questions. The installers were extremely quick, but did a very quality job, at an affordable price. If I need any future chimney work I will definitely be coming back to Chimney Master Dallas.

I will try to keep this short and sweet! From dealing with the owner about what our needs really were to keeping the communication lines open and his team installing our new Buck Stove.
There is no way I could have been any more pleased with the entire experience. Their team are "First Class" all the way
