AAARRRRGGGHHHH!
Went to the dealer that sold me my F600 today to get the parts needed to install an OAK. I was informed that they could only order the part that attaches to the stove, but that any other parts (pipe, through wall pieces) would have to be purchased at another location. I was informed that I would need 3" pipe for the connection to the OAK.
SO, I went to the shops competitor down the road and asked for 3" pipe for connection to the OAK (I am looking for something flexible rather than rigid) and was informed they only had 2" or 4"......GGGRRRRRRRR! So, other than having the stove part on order, I am no closer to installing my OAK.
Question- is it possible to use flexible metal hose like you would use on a dryer to install the OAK? This would make the install so much easier as I could use a dryer vent through the wall, remove the flaps from it, install a screen to keep the critters out, and purchase the hose all at Home Depot.
Thoughts?
EDIT- Just read throught he owners manual for the F600- the manual calls for 4"pipe for the OAK- now my dealer doesn't even know the correct size of the pipe.......
