Anyone around??
I am having a metal roof installed later this month.
I have researched online, talked to contractors, talked to my metal manufacturer and have been assured that burning wood fallout will not harm my new metal roof.
Smoke won't hurt, sparks won't hurt, and regardless I have a very comprehensive lifetime parts and labor guarantee from a firm I trust.
All is well, right?
So today I stumble on THIS photo and it scared the pants off me.
Obviously it is a bad chimney installation job- I know nothing and even I can see violations.
But... that's rust or what??
What I want is for you guys to tell me all the 100 different ways this went wrong and why it will not happen to me.
I have a stainless steel liner, spark arrestor,and am serviced every spring, I burn well seasoned wood (really), and read here and do everything I can to burn correctly.
But as I said- that photo is frightening.
I THINK it is more moisture related than burning related but please reassure me.
Thanks!
