Difficult Reline?

Post your skills and pics on Facebook Marketplace and hire yourself out for other installs/retrofits in the area! Sounds like you would be swamped with business. A shame to let your level of expertise and now experience go to waste.

The risk of litigation is too high for someone to do these kinds of installs on the side. You can't guarantee what folks will do after you leave.

Do you have a view on the advisability of adding the vents?

The vents are fine and will scavenge a bit of heat for upstairs.

Thanks for the kind words. I tried very hard to do an installation that was both safe and sound. I am retired, so I really didn’t have any time constraints. I probably would not be able to eke out more than $5 per hour if I had to charge for all the hours I put in. Also, I am done with working in tight attic space.... never again!

Thanks much! The input from you and others in this forum has been a huge help.

You have probably done a better job than most "professionals" and you should feel good about the performance and safety of the installation.

Thanks much! This forum has been invaluable to me.

Vents are not really needed, the outside of the class A pipe will only get warm to the touch, more or less its nullified and not really worth the effort to cut in vents, but if your inclined to do so, then go ahead.

Thanks much, I really appreciate the help!
