Hi all, new to the forums. I scoured them extensively when looking at buying a new BK, and now that I have it and am having a problem i figured what better place to go for some help.
On to the issue. I picked up the stove last weekend and early this week ordered some Selkirk double wall stove pipe. I began looking at the installation today after work and quickly realized that the masonry adapter will not slide into my current 6" thimble. The old woodstove had single wall 6" pipe, and the tapered end slid in perfectly. It's very confusing to me that the 6" masonry adapter does not do the same. Is this not it's function? See below for a current photo. It appears the current thimble is just under 6" on the ID, maybe a hair over 5 7/8".
Thanks in advance for any and all the help and have a good weekend!
