So finally crawled up on the roof today to take a look at the flue. It's 9.5x10. Put a tape down it and it was 14' to the damper. What should I put in for a liner? And there was no cap on the flues at all.

So does anyone have any thoughts on my pictures at all or if the 14' height matters? I also talked the wife into going with a woodstove!!!! Just trying to figure out which one would be best now.
Thanks for the help!
 
Put in an insulated liner and maybe extend it a foot over the cap.
