Chimney Liners, ManhattanYour Local Chimney Liners Service in Manhattan, NY
Fireplaces get the attention, but the hardest-working flue in most Manhattan buildings serves the boiler. In Manhattan, gas heats roughly 49% of occupied homes and oil around 13%. Oil leaves soot and acidic deposits in a masonry flue, and gas produces moisture that condenses in cold, oversized ones. Either can break down old clay liners and mortar over time, which is why relining is often part of a boiler upgrade. Our local crew measures the flue and the new appliance and installs a liner sized to match.

Chimney Liners for Manhattan Homes
At least 75 apartment buildings were built in Morningside Heights between 1903 and 1911. Many still run a central boiler through a tall masonry chimney, and after a century of service those flues often need a new liner sized to a modern boiler.
The Upper East Side Historic District takes in post-Civil War row houses, early 1900s mansions and townhouses, and later apartment buildings. A mansion or townhouse there may have several flues, and the one serving the boiler is usually the first to need relining.
Our crew installs liners in Morningside Heights, the Upper East Side, Washington Heights, Harlem and Murray Hill.
