The customer's concern: furnace backdrafting
The customer reported that the furnace was backdrafting. PB Chimney Services carried out chimney relining at the Newark property, with completion in April.
This project record focuses on that reported concern, the work performed and the installation photographs. The roof-level views show the liner work and exterior fittings; they do not show the furnace connection or the inside of the flue.
Installation work at the chimney opening
The first photograph captures a technician handling a flexible metal liner at the top of the brick chimney. It documents the installation in progress, with the chimney opening and surrounding masonry visible.
The second photograph gives a closer view of the round metal terminations, clamps and protective caps at the chimney top. Together, the images show the liner and the exterior fittings involved in the project.
