Hi all,
Took a half day yesterday so I could be home while Ed Goodman Chimney Services installed my insert. First, I'd like to say that Ed and Shawn of Southeast PA were incredibly friendly, efficient, and seem to have done a great job all around. From the time I got home till the time they were gone was less than 2 hours, and the only problem they experienced was that my firebox was so unlevel and the point to level of the Lopi stove is the under-stove casters...hard to do, I imagine. Would've been 90 minutes if not for how unlevel the firebox was I have NOT gotten a bill yet, so we'll see what that says.
They got to my house before me and gave me time at work so as not to rush me. Before I arrived, they got out the insulated liner,chimney cap, dollied the stove to the back slider window, and laid out all their parts.
Here's the stove on the dolly. What really impressed me is that this is a visually smallish stove, but the firebox is quite deep. I took pictures of measurements of the firebox, which will come. For now, here's the outside. Very fine exterior appearances.
The liner:
The Chimney cap seems to be simple but of good quality:
Now a picture of the inside of the stove as delivered:
The weld in the back here looks slightly sloppier than I'd love to see, but otherwise the interior is beautiful, simple, and well done.
Next up, install photos
