Afternoon. No, a new S/Steel liner will be installed to match the requirements stated for the stove. Cheers.

Cheers, with nothing to substantiate comments it all becomes a minefield!!

Good question, and my initial thoughts too as the point of the S/S liner is to provide a closed flue to the top. In all honesty, it seems to be the thing to do, it was stated it would be done aby a fitting company that came out to scope for the stove installation and general advice seems to be...
