Re: brick chimneys
Daniel - A liner should be installed. The gas exhaust is cooler and, I believe, contains more water vapor than coal or oil. Aside from the fact that all that condensate will damage the old masonry flue, the flue is probably also too big for the gas furnace, which just makes the problem worse.
