Installation process

[jorswift]

so my daughter was home sick from school for 2 days and I got bored while hanging around the house, so I started into my wood stove install project. I hope I have done everything correct from reading on here. I used Supervent class A from ceiling up.

I tore out the old factory pos and removed the old liner. I did however keep 2 5’ sections of the old liner as it was 11” and used that as my guide up the chase. All clearances of 2” have been met and exceeded. Now just waiting on some finishing parts to arrive. I have temporarily sealed the ceiling with foam board until I can finish the walls and ceiling.

I don’t need anything special for the chimney in the chase?

I still have the hearth to do as well. I am installing a Summers Heat 2000sqft.

What is between the top of the stove & the ceiling? I think you said Class A from the ceiling up, but it looks like from fireplace up? Our almost 25 year old prefab fireplace has class A right from the fireplace all the way to the cap - the class A screwed right onto the fireplace breach. Added supports where it passed through joist spaces. Otherwise, behind it looks a lot like yours does - just bare pipe in a studded & wall boarded space.

The old was Majestic 8" stainless chimney liner and 11" galvanized air shield? or something. When I removed the fireplace the stainless sections just came right down. The 11" galvanized outer is fastened the top of the chase, so I left the 2 top pieces, since I couldn't reach them and used them as a brace/guide for the new Supervent Class A that I ran up. I spoke with an old Majestic rep and he said that the outer 11" pipe draws in the outside air to cool the inside. Since this is still up, hoping it still helps I guess for piece of mind.

Might just be me but still not sure what you have connecting the stove to the chimney? If it is anything but Class A you might not be able to chase it in like that, by code. Maybe someone else will chime in.

I don't have anything from stove to chimney yet. I have yet to put the stove in. The pics are the old fireplace that I took out.

I am going to use double wall stove pipe from stove to chimney though, when I get to that part.

Didn't realize what I was looking at.
