Really? How on earth did you do it? I assumed scaffolding etc, etc.
The chimney is huge, I could probably crawl up it (kidding) so I
did wonder about shoving some up it, although how would I secure it at
the top?



Bah! Tall ladder, rope, hammer.
Tie hammer to rope.
Drop hammer down chimney.
Remove hammer, tie rope to end of liner.
Pull liner up, while an assistant pushes it from below. Ours was a very
tight fit, but we wriggled it up there.
Fit register plat at the bottom
Fit closure plate and cowl at the top.
Done.


Yes, but its a lot nicer if you have scaffold, and prfessioals may
insist - insurance cover etc.

Otherwsie, yes, thats how we did ours, but we had to use double
insulated, not flexible, and it was a bugger to get round the kinks...
