Our house was built in 1849 and passed inspection without a chimney liner due to grandfathering. Love having fires but becoming increasingly concerned of having no liner. There’s a fireplace I still haven’t used because I’m just unsure.
Anyone have experice with getting a liner installed or replaced? If I understand it correctly- lining to an open fireplace (of which we have two, one of which is a giant hearth with additional beehive) is more expensive than lining to a wood stove. Having a chimney sweep come out in a couple weeks to clean but not sure how sustainable this is without a liner.
