I am planning a build and the one question (or one of the remaining dozen or so) that keeps coming around in my head is a liner.
I am planning on an insulated wood house that will be able to handle temps up to about 275 or so. I will be using various heat/smoke sources ( pellet maze and northern tool burner will be the primary sources) so I wanted to do something that is somewhat flame resistant.
I have seen many using durock, hardibacker, cement board, and other similar products. I have also seen contrarian advice on using such products. I would appreciate any feedback, advice, etc on these materials as they seem like they would do a pretty decent job. I am leaning on the cement board as that is what is most readily availble but if I have to travel for a better product so be it. I dont expect anything to last forever, but I dont want to built a maintenance nightmare either.
any input would be greatly appreciated.
