Ok so I was planning on starting my Shelburne install and was going to get a liner for my masonry chimney. After measuring my existing clay liner its about 8x12 OD but about 6.5x11.25 ID and the stove place said they dont have anything that would fit. They said they might be able to get ovalized pipe and tee but the cost would be more and it would be non refundable special ordered. And just the price of the standard 6" was way over what I thought it would be compared to my insert install which was even taller but no Tee.
The fellow suggested I perhaps try out the masonry chimney first since it wasnt that much larger... the book calls for 6" round or 8x8 masonry (ID?), 8x8 would be 64sq" and 6.5x11.25 would be 73.1.
Here are some dimensions FWIW... From the thimble to the top of chimney is 15', thimble down to cleanout in basement is 10'6", and thimble is 8" round and about 16.5" deep. Its interior chimney.
Anyone have any suggestions? Think the Shelburne might be ok in my existing setup? I dont mind trying it out even if it does poorly, I have the insert plus propane if it doesnt work until I can get a proper liner.
