Great looking install. You will love the stove.....how did you vent outside, up the wall? any concerns about being so close to the opening windows?

Awesome install, congrats, welcome and enjoy the heat
I should be OK. I don’t think 150 lb/sq ft is too crazy and I just checked the joists which are 16 inch oc and it looks like, assuming the entire load is on the hanger end (it isn’t), there is about 660 lbs per hanger which is within the Simpson DF/SP load table allowables. I wish I had some pictures from before the decking was laid down to see exactly what hangers were used.

That seems to be the $64,000 question. So far so good. I commented in a different thread that I thought the joist hangers would be OK but I have no idea how well the porch is lag bolted to the house.

I really wish I had taken some pictures of that when they were building the house. I may just pull up a couple of deck boards to inspect the construction.
Thanks! I built it big enough to fit a Mt. Vernon or M-55 down the road if I want to upgrade.Xena said:Love the custom built hearth pad. Congrats on the new stove and enjoy.
