I have a Heatilator model 3138 fireplace. I would like to install a woodburning stove on the hearth with a metal panel in the fireplace opening and the wood stove flu/ducting going up the heatilator chimney. I'm hoping for more heat by placing the wood stove on the hearth and blocking the fireplace opening, instead of installing a fireplace insert.
Will the woodstove pipe cause any problems in the Heatilator chimney?
