Chimney Liner Warranty Comparison Chart: Lifetime Chimney Supply VS. DuraVent

Lifetime Chimney Warranty Requirements

  1. To be covered under the Lifetime Warranty your Lifetime Chimney Liner must be installed by a certified solid fuel installer, in accordance to the written instructions provided with your liner. Any deviations or improper installations will void the warranty.
  2. Annual inspections, maintenance and cleaning must begin one year after the date of the installation and continue once every twelve months thereafter by a certified chimney sweep or a qualified solid fuel professional.
  3. The chimney must have a Lifetime Chimney Supply chimney cap.
  4. Corrosive chemical chimney cleaners must not be used and their use will void the warranty.

  6. The maintenance record must be up-to-date.
