I am trying to line a 7"x11" chimney flue with a 6" round flex liner. Unfortunately the first time I tried to drop the liner down I only was able to get 2' in before it would not go any farther due to misaligned bricks. A friend of mine made me a cone out of wood 6-1/4" at the widest to pull the liner down with. I tested just the cap out today and was able to navigate the curve in the 30' chimney, however I was not able to get it all the way down due to the cement connecting the liners sticking out. Any suggestions for how to run the liner?
