I am thinking about buying a used fireplace to replace a free standing Vermont Castings stove. The existing stove came with the house. I pulled it out to remodel. Right now there is just a square metal box on the ceiling with 6" chimney in center. The single wall pipe from the old stove went straight up into it.
I would prefer to change to a regular built in fireplace. Is it possible to reuse the existing chimney or would it all have to be replaced?
Here are some pictures of one I was looking at: https://photos.app.goo.gl/zwYwJufD2cxTmea46
The other fireplace I found forsale is a Heatilator A42C I think.
I know this style of fireplace is not efficient, just would be for occasional use.
