⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is by far the most comprehensive video on the internet. Paul explains every aspect of fitting a woodburner in detail, from start to finish in layman's terms. Doing this yourself, saves you a small fortune. Watching this video gave me the confidence to undertake this project. Ive spoke to Paul on the phone and he is a genuinely nice person. He answered my questions happily. They also sell a complete kit to do this project with the exception of the stove. Thanks again Mr Ross
What a great comprehensive video, explained in plain English step by step guide. this gave me a great insight on how to complete the work myself. I called into a local store today for a price & they said it would be around £5,000 I could not help myself & burst out laughing, they wanted just £800 to drop the liner down the chimney & said its quite technical.. oh yeah make sure the arrows are pointing up eh.! no doubt in my mind at all this video has saved me a small fortune. when the time comes I will purchase the liner kit from Paul just as a thank you. Much appreciated Paul top man.! :)
this is the most comprehensive video I have seen. Really helped me with my DIY install. That last connection to the wood stove was definitly the hardest part and what no one talks about is that you will need to remove your stove after about each cord of wood you burn to have it cleaned so that last connection needs to be easily removable (which mine is not). If i am wrong about this someone please tell me because having to remove my stove about once a year is a real PITA!
Great video. This video was very well done. There were no unusual personality disordered behaviors demonstrated, no excessive rambling or general "goofballistic" oddities. The content was prepared in advance, the narrator stayed on topic and nothing was left out or assumed to be known by the viewer. The topic was organized, thoroughly covered and very professionally done. I especially appreciated that the author took the time to include "basic hints" that could only have been known to someone who has done this kind of work professionally many times. This video was almost a perfect instructional video and could be used as an example of how to properly produce a youtube instructional video. Only 10% of my reviews have been positive because so many videos on youtube are very poorly produced, this video is an exception and I found it to be very refreshing. PS The only comment that I have would be that it would have been great to have seen the application of fire cement at the bottom and top of the stove pipe connector (between the chimney liner and the stove). I do understand that it might have been somewhat difficult to have properly shown such a closed in space. I was surprised when you mentioned that part, since I did exactly the same thing when I installed my woodstove although only to the bottom part of the connection and I didn't realize that such a procedure was something that was commonly done.
Thank you very much much for your great review of this video. As the producer I'm proud of this production. But I have to commend Paul who is the expert, a great presenter and it is his knowledge that has helped many people. Just pleased he chose my production company to make this film for him. JG
Cheers Paul 👍 Great Video & Guide to assisting me in the complete install of my Log Burner. Saved me a lot of money during these difficult times . and which enable me to heat the house without using these corrupt energy companies ! Thankyou ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’m in Pennsylvania in the US. I’ve watched a lot of these types of videos and this one is the BEST !!! Thank you so much !!! I live in a farmhouse built in 1850 and am considering putting a wood insert or wood stove in my fireplace. I’m a woman, however, so I am definitely going to need a professional. 😊👍
Amazing amazing video! I wasn't sure how to tackle flue lining my chimney for a new stove but I feel quite confident now. I think this certainly a very DIY-able job. Thanks for taking the time to create and share this video!
well done Paul. We are moving into an old home in Scotland and we will be installing a couple of these. I knew nothing about lining a chimney and now I feel like I know quite a bit about it. Appreciate your expertise. cheers mate
Absolutely brill video, just one thing, the way the stove was being pushed and pulled around to fit the down pipe I hope the marble hearth was protected from the feet scratching it
yo sip9ped the part of how to connect the flexible p8ipe to the solid steel n"adapter" I think it is. This is the solid piece that suddenly shows up in the background on the end of the flexible pipe that was last shown hanging round and trimmed to size. This is exactly the part I was looking for and you showed everything but this.
Paul,I cant thank you enough for this video!I learned more from you than any of the other videos and your sense of humor made it enjoyable as well.I received a 6000 dollar estimate this am from a highly recommended chimney sweep to sleeve just the furnace side of my chimney.Now that included a few more things but the price is still ridiculous.Thank You Again
I just called the number for ubuyudo and got the man himself, glad I did because without his knowledge and professionalism I may have got myself in real trouble. Many Many Thanks Kevin O'Connell
Hi Mate!! just listened to your conversation with The LBC presenter. Well articulated and relevant! I do follow your channel by the way!!! keep the flame blazing !!!
First time I have ever seen your Channel... literally one minute into it I subscribed and liked your video just simply because of what your website represents and gives to the DIYers.
A useful guide for flue fitting. Considering doing this myself for our bungalow. Done carefully and correctly to save money yet be building regs compliant. As a separate comment you have a striking resemblance to actor Jerome Flynn. Anyway I have subscribed.
After watching what you did i fitted my own liner today, Had a quote from packington chimney sweep tamworth £1370 ! that was inc cherry picker hire ?? .. I paid £176 for full 316 liner kit of 7 m off ebay. 2 ladders inc a cat ladder to get to the chimney. sorted . Cheers ubuyudo
Fantastic video! Thank you so much! Would have liked to to see how the adaptor was fitted to the plate, guessing it's a straight forward insert into the liner and through the plate. But what a comprehensive, interesting, well. Edited video. Thanks again.
Thank you. As the producer hired to make this film I'm chuffed it was so well received. Regarding the content that's down to Paul who knows his business and is naturally a brilliant presenter. JG
I installed my stove like you have shown and I've fired it all winter but now that it's summer a bad smell is coming down through my register plate. What should I do?
Pots often loosen up within the mortar due to shrinkage after a few years, they are still a bugger to get out if the mortar is otherwise sound. I'd have been more concerned to see bricks moving.
As a trained HETAS engineer the best advice is don't do it yourself. In this installation the fire is in the wrong position to meet UK building regs. The cowl cannot be taken off after installation because of internal strap which is now down inside chimney so if you want to replace it later you have to disconnect fire or smash chimney, the cowl often needs replacing before liner is worn out. Fire cement should be put in collar before flue pipe so that pipe is imbedded in cement not just smeared on. Fire cement wil eventually fall out from around closure plate, use heat proof silicone its easier anyway etc etc etc. Use a HETAS registered engineer that way you KNOW you're safe rather than just think you are.
This is the first video where I’ve seen the liner attach to a stove pipe, all the other vids they just attach the liner to the wood stove without using that pipe. Is that bc this video is old and they do it differently now? Or is this way better? Thank you
great video answered every question I had about fitting a liner myself clear and informative nice that someone can pass on experience without trying to push sales thank you
Thanks Kevin. As the producer, I was very happy with this film. I just wish Paul was getting more reward for sharing his knowledge and expertise because he's a really top guy. JG
Just interested as to why there was no mention of insulation of the flue pipe. I was of the impression that loose fill vermiculate was required around the flue?
I wish he had showed me how to fix the plate to the brackets. He shows the fixing of brackets ( in my opinion should use express anchor fixings) but then you see everything fixed in place.
I'm a HETAS fitter this is not done to HETAS regulation or building regs doc J min back gap is 75 mm ideally 100mm ,150 mm sides an 200mm top this is to stop the stove over heating and cracking ,600m of vit pipe ie black pipe before you connect to flexi as most flexis are fire rated at 400 to 450 degree C and black pipe to 1200 C this dissipates the heat before it gets to the flexi if this is not done it can ruin the flexi and it can start to unravel or fail as it can't take the extremely hot gases , has not shown the flexi adapter to vit pipe connection which is very tricky when done inside the chimney ,so don't fit your own stove if it has not been signed off by a Hetas or building control your home insurance will be invalid in the event of a chimney fire .
Can you please tell me where those measurements are listed in doc J. From what I can find, the distance to non combustible materials is defined by the installation instructions of the burner.
Agreed. There are FAR too many Spivs and Wideboys operating in this area now that so many think that they can save £1000s by installing a stove. Unless you have access to tonnes of free wood and room to mature it where necessary, you’ll end up with a liability not a £ saver.
Hi, I know your comment was 3 years ago but I'd like to ask your advice after watching this video. I have a multi fuel stove. I have recently had some work done on my chimney, brickwork and pointing. They needed to remove the chimney pot. My question is, should the flue be sealed at the top around the top of the chimney pot?
GEEZ…. 7 yr. Old video. IM LATE TO THE PARTY! I have 3 Chimneys to do, one is actually a double hearth& I’m wondering if one side could be natural gas and other wood burning 🔥 😮or is that an explosion waiting to happen!? 😅 the single goes into my basement and I would Love to do wood burning to heat basement and crawl space when it’s freezing weather and keep my floors warm and pipes from freezing 🥶… ummmm?? Would love and up dated video and some guidance. DIY Me, from USA 🇺🇸 Tennessee😊😊 great straight vid though. Takes some of the fear out!
Hi Paul, I recently purchased an insert stove (7KW) for installation into my existing fireplace, which is lined with standard clay pots. The stove manufacturer, HOTA, recommends that a 6-inch double-lined Flexi liner be used to line the clay pot chimney stack. The registered installer is anxious to use 5-inch flexi-liner. He insists on telling me, that 5 inch is more than adequate to reach the top of our single-story house (c. 15 ft) Should I insist on a 6-inch liner, or allow the installation to go ahead with the 5-inch liner???
Hi idk if you still need help but I install liners daily. If you use your fireplace frequently a 304 grade doubled wall or single wall corrugated, depending if your chimney goes thru your home or its on the end of the house (gable end chimney) this matters cuz of insulation. Also size of existing flue tiles plays a factor. Maybe the company saw tht your chimney has alot of bends and getting a rigid 6" double wall would be a big fight. Short answer, yes their recommendations work.
Would it be possible to have an access point on the stove pipe to sweep the chimney or is there not enough of stove pipe showing between the stove and register plate ?
I sure hope someone can help me out on this one. I want to put a wood burning fireplace in my house and use the chimney but the chimney stops halfway in the attic. Now what? Thanks
Hello sir. I have an old canadian farmhouse. I want to do what you are doing but pull the liner out the side of the chimney through a hole the size of a pie plate to attach to a angled stove pipe and pot belly wood stove. Can you direct me as to if this is possible ?
I enjoyed your video very much although I would have like to see the finished product inserted in the wall and a flame going. Also is it going to stay rough-looking where the chimney used to be or is there some kind of covering that will finish up the look? Anyway I'll look for more videos from you! Thanks 👋
nice work I am just starting my project and the fire box has a steel liner looks like there is insulation behind it the top part of the liner has deuterated rusted out.. my question is do you try to fit the register to it seal up with fire masonry or?? Or is the best option remove the fire box liner coat complete with a smooth fire masonry product then fit the register would like to send pictures
I really like that round nosed heavy piece that you can pull down with a rope. Is that a common piece with a name, or is that exclusive to Great Britain. I live here on the western side of the United States. The British seem more advanced about burning wood than we do.
Each to their own of course, but I don't think safety specs are enough for an angle grinder. I've had too many sharp off-shoots / debris hit me in the face and they can sneak under spec. I prefer a full face visor.
Do you have anything to say about insulating the liner within the chimney? I have had recommendations to use 'leca' granules but there are also products like 'chimwrap'.
you cant back-fill a chimney when using the pot+hanging cowl. If you fix the bottom end in place first (top-hat adapter or similar) then you can back-fill with Leca. Chimwrap or Thermaflue allow you to finish the top first, but it's easier to pull the liner up the chimney (because of the extra weight).
Hiya mate. Great clip 1st but I have a question. Is the liner the same diameter as the flue outlet on the stove or does it step-up a size as that is what I've heard? many thanks.
I’m aiming to do this and had my chimney professionally swept yesterday. He told me that I HAVE to put an insulated blanket on my insert for my wood burning stove I’m installing. But much of the instructional videos I’m seeing don’t say that I have to. Can you provide any insight?
Don't any of these fireplace's have a Damper that opens and closes going into the chimney shelf? mine has a 4" opening the width of the fireplace. How do you deal with installing the round pipe thru the rectangular opening of the damper?
Hi Paul great video. I'm planning in installing my stove with a liner would you recommend to fill the outside of liner with vercumlite? To prevent condensation?
Honestly, the purpose of the liner is to evacuate hot gases and smoke. The entire brick chimney heats up as a result of this reducing condensation and damp.
I have recently had a wood burner installed with flex pipe like this video. The register plate was siliconed with a heat resistant sealant. Is this OK? Also I can feel air coming through the sides of the register plate is this OK?
hello Paul; smashing good demonstration, I have a bit of question, and perhaps you could add to your presentation ??? what is concidered the life span of a flex piping? and or how often the piping (years) should they be replaced ?
Why not iron bench, iron fire place, spiral smoke outlet with 0,5 m diameter, spiral like 9 m in length. Iron sylinder coat, filling with sand, connection to chimney. Forced flow, through water due emission handling, heat pump residue heat benefitational surplus😅

You have made a fantastic vidio you are correct in evrything you say from a 4th generation builder stop when things are not rite
Absolutely amazing video - thank you so much! Really comprehensive and easy to follow. Thanks again.
one of the best videos i have seen. very well explained. excellent job mate.
incredible video ross... can't wait to move into the new house and get on with this project!!!
You are a Diamond Geezer.... nuff said!

There's a lot of information offered by a very charismatic speaker. I had some fun and learned a lot of useful information.
Very impressive content. Well done.
I installed my stove like you have shown and I've fired it all winter but now that it's summer a bad smell is coming down through my register plate. What should I do?
Great video, now to conquer my fear of heights! BTW did anyone else notice the chimney pot moving at 9:02 ?
Good spot
Pots often loosen up within the mortar due to shrinkage after a few years, they are still a bugger to get out if the mortar is otherwise sound. I'd have been more concerned to see bricks moving.
Nice one Paul. My missus loves ya.
yeslove every bit ,just the final part was missing the fire burning .warm and cozy
Yeah, I would like to see the mantel back in place, etc, to see the overall look in the end, and a fire in the stove!
Top of the pops👍.

Agreed. There are FAR too many Spivs and Wideboys operating in this area now that so many think that they can save £1000s by installing a stove. Unless you have access to tonnes of free wood and room to mature it where necessary, you’ll end up with a liability not a £ saver.
You need an update on regs then mate, manufactures data and non combustible materials IE Brick as stated in other comments.

Very cool !
What about the adaptor that went on the end of the liner and into the register plate?
Whats happened to this guys website
Hi Paul, I recently purchased an insert stove (7KW) for installation into my existing fireplace, which is lined with standard clay pots. The stove manufacturer, HOTA, recommends that a 6-inch double-lined Flexi liner be used to line the clay pot chimney stack. The registered installer is anxious to use 5-inch flexi-liner. He insists on telling me, that 5 inch is more than adequate to reach the top of our single-story house (c. 15 ft)
Should I insist on a 6-inch liner, or allow the installation to go ahead with the 5-inch liner???
Hi idk if you still need help but I install liners daily. If you use your fireplace frequently a 304 grade doubled wall or single wall corrugated, depending if your chimney goes thru your home or its on the end of the house (gable end chimney) this matters cuz of insulation. Also size of existing flue tiles plays a factor. Maybe the company saw tht your chimney has alot of bends and getting a rigid 6" double wall would be a big fight. Short answer, yes their recommendations work.
Would it be possible to have an access point on the stove pipe to sweep the chimney or is there not enough of stove pipe showing between the stove and register plate ?
we are the filmmakers and the channel not the expert. you will need to contact Paul Ross directly.
Nice
👍🏼
That the best way! WTG 👍👍

well done. From across the pond and a new england yankee no less.
cheers 👍🏼
I sure hope someone can help me out on this one. I want to put a wood burning fireplace in my house and use the chimney but the chimney stops halfway in the attic. Now what? Thanks
Hello sir. I have an old canadian farmhouse. I want to do what you are doing but pull the liner out the side of the chimney through a hole the size of a pie plate to attach to a angled stove pipe and pot belly wood stove. Can you direct me as to if this is possible ?
Does 'one' need to install the flexible liner in a flu that has already got earthenware pots installed when house was built ?
I enjoyed your video very much although I would have like to see the finished product inserted in the wall and a flame going. Also is it going to stay rough-looking where the chimney used to be or is there some kind of covering that will finish up the look? Anyway I'll look for more videos from you! Thanks 👋

I really like that round nosed heavy piece that you can pull down with a rope. Is that a common piece with a name, or is that exclusive to Great Britain. I live here on the western side of the United States. The British seem more advanced about burning wood than we do.
To speak directly to Paul email him at ubuyudo@gmail.com
Each to their own of course, but I don't think safety specs are enough for an angle grinder. I've had too many sharp off-shoots / debris hit me in the face and they can sneak under spec. I prefer a full face visor.
Good video but I’m thinking the liner is supposed to be insulated in the US
great video that patrick o"niel got a lot to say
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Do you have anything to say about insulating the liner within the chimney? I have had recommendations to use 'leca' granules but there are also products like 'chimwrap'.

Brilliant film , watched professional presenters nowhere near as good,many thanks
If chimney diameter is 120mm and flue from stove is 150mm will this reduction in size affect its use, safety etc.
You can’t go from 150mm down to 120mm , only the Same or bigger
Thanks , save me a fortune 🤙
Happy to help
I saw that screw fall @11.06 minutes in
how do you fit the adaptor to the end of the stainless liner as this isn't shown in the video? Thanks
Hiya mate. Great clip 1st but I have a question. Is the liner the same diameter as the flue outlet on the stove or does it step-up a size as that is what I've heard? many thanks.
You need to contact Paul directly
Must be a great stove manufacturer. Never heard of it
Why do I need to fit a new pot and cowel why can't I use the existing pot that was on when I had a gas fire?
Great video, where can I order that pot hanging bird guard for a 5 inch liner in 6 inch clay flue
as the filmmaker we don’t have that information hope you have been successful finding what you need.
Awesome ... needn't say more !
I’m aiming to do this and had my chimney professionally swept yesterday. He told me that I HAVE to put an insulated blanket on my insert for my wood burning stove I’m installing.
But much of the instructional videos I’m seeing don’t say that I have to. Can you provide any insight?

The liner must be inserted in the chimney from bottom to top............................................................
Don't any of these fireplace's have a Damper that opens and closes going into the chimney shelf? mine has a 4" opening the width of the fireplace. How do you deal with installing the round pipe thru the rectangular opening of the damper?
Didnt mention the pictures needed, did you? I skipped little bits, mainly the googles and gloves 🙄
I know this is n old video but is that the double wall liner ?
Hi Paul great video. I'm planning in installing my stove with a liner would you recommend to fill the outside of liner with vercumlite? To prevent condensation?

What was the outcome of your question? Thanks
Honestly, the purpose of the liner is to evacuate hot gases and smoke. The entire brick chimney heats up as a result of this reducing condensation and damp.
Quick question, does the steel liner need to have any insulation around it? Thanks.

That's a real shame. Paul has helped a lot of people with this video and we were very happy to give him this platform to share his knowledge.
I have recently had a wood burner installed with flex pipe like this video. The register plate was siliconed with a heat resistant sealant. Is this OK? Also I can feel air coming through the sides of the register plate is this OK?

hi are you still in business, Mr. Ross ?
google paul ross and you'll find him on linkedin.
This is a channel that showcases many stories and we featured Paul a few years ago now. JG
"The flue liner edges are razor sharp" next thing he is lying on top of the liner he has pulled apart.
Its a lot cheaper to regularly sweep your chimney
hello Paul; smashing good demonstration, I have a bit of question, and perhaps you could add to your presentation ??? what is concidered the life span of a flex piping? and or how often the piping (years) should they be replaced ?
ody ody The liner he installed has a life span of 20yrs, I think there are some that are longer... Me personally, I have to replace one.

Why not iron bench, iron fire place, spiral smoke outlet with 0,5 m diameter, spiral like 9 m in length. Iron sylinder coat, filling with sand, connection to chimney. Forced flow, through water due emission handling, heat pump residue heat benefitational surplus😅
