8.12.2

Except as provided in Clause 8.21.6, before replacing or removing (while leaving one or more appliances
still connected to the chimney) an existing appliance or connecting a vent connector to a chimney, the
chimney flue shall be examined to ascertain that the chimney:
(a) is properly constructed;
(b) is lined with a tile or metal liner;
• if installation of a liner is required it shall be completed within 5 days for residential applications
and 30 days for commercial applications of replacing or removal of the existing appliance. The
installer or agent undertaking the replacement, removal or connection of the new appliance
shall:
i. complete the installation of the liner, or
ii. ensure the short-term safe continued use of the chimney and complete a documented
follow-up
to ensure that the chimney is lined within the applicable timeframe specified
above, and shall treat any failure to comply as an unacceptable condition in accordance
with section 14 of 0. Reg. 212/01.
• a tile liner is not acceptable for an exterior chimney; it shall be relined with a certified metal liner.
(c) is clear and free of soot, creosote, or obstructions;
(d) will effectively conduct the products of combustion outdoors; and
(e) is sized in accordance with Clause 8.1 3
