I've been burning my Quad insert for primary heat for 3 years now. Everything is good there.
This year I'm connecting a free standing Hearthstone Shelburne through a combustible wall and into a masonry chimney. I need a little help here, as this is a new type of connection for me.
The existing installation, which was burned for years by the previous owners goes like this:
Stove - some kind of connector pipe (they took it with them) - then at the combustible wall is a 12" piece of Metalbestos double wall pipe that goes through the wall, through the masonry block of the chimney and into the terracotta tiles. The chimney is about 30' high. There is a "pie-plate" that attaches to the drywall on the combustible wall around the Metalbestos pipe.
I would like to run rigid pipe down the length of the chimney - to a tee - and then I need the help...
does the tee feed a thimble - a wall pass through - or is the piece of double wall that's there meet standards?
Any pics or links would also be greatly appreciated - -thanks.
