Hi everyone this is my first post here i have been reading the forum for weeks and feel pretty confident to start my new adventure which is to change out my old wood stove and replace with a new pellet stove...but i have a couple of task to overcome before i start my project first being...i dont want to pull out my old wood stove pipe out from the ceiling up that is....ive seen here imacman used a stove pipe adapter to convert at the top from 8 to 4 going down to the stove ...i have a question though i have metalbestos double pipe going from the ceiling out to the roof if i get the adapter what kind of vp pipe do i use from the stove to the adapter does it have to be the same brand as my old metalbesos..am i making sense to anyone...
Also i am picking up a Avalon Astoria in about 2 weeks do i need to vent this stove with and outside air hookup if you don't what do you use behind the stove where the air hookup would go?.....well there it goes my first post and i hope i didn't make it to confusing...im posting some pics of my wood stove where i plan i doing this project...
