**
There are open joints found between every two foot section of
Terra Cotta tile/Flue liner, this shall allow heat transfer to
nearby combustible areas of home. Unfortunately this
fireplace/Flue liner has a 30 degree bend above the damper
assembly, this is the reason it needs a Stainless Steel Liner
apposed to a Fire Guard repair.
***If the bricks in the smoke chamber are not parged, it may allow
passage of heated gases between the brick structure. This
condition is considered a potential fire and carbon monoxide
hazard due to the heat transfer to nearby combustibles.
