A big drawback with the HomeSaver chimney liner is the warranty. With a HomeSaver chimney liner, no matter what kind, the homeowner receives a “Sweep Install Only” warranty. What this means is a certified chimney sweep must install the chimney liner in your home in order for the warranty to be valid. HomeSaver chimney liners are also not sold directly to the public. HomeSaver chimney liners are sold through chimney sweeps. This could turn into a nightmare for the homeowner that has questions about their HomeSaver chimney liner or are looking for some customer service concerning their Homesaver chimney liner. What if the sweep is out of business? On vacation? Moved away? As for the HomeSaver chimney liner itself, all of them have a corrugated interior which allows for deadly creosote buildup to occur in your flue liner. Also they are made with one layer of 316Ti metal alloy when they are constructed. This leads to a lower crush point when compared to Flex King Pro chimney liner.
