2013年10月28日 · It's probably 50 years old. The former owner had an old-school cast iron insert in the fireplace venting directly up the chimney. I have removed the insert and would like to place a wood stove on the hearth and vent it up the chimney. Budget is an issue so I'm wondering if I can just run stove pipe up the chimney all the way to the top.

My house is 180 years old and I'm guessing the chimney is slightly newer at around 150 years old.

But then luck is a matter of how you see it, as he did not feel to lucky when the mason handed him the bill for the new chimney. And, now scared to death, he installed a new SS stack for the wood stove.

2013年8月12日 · Just a little hint here too. If you do plan on heating with wood, take some time to visit the Wood Shed part of hearth.com's forums. In there you will find much information about wood and burning of the wood. You will also find that most of us go by the 3 year plan. That is, get yourself 3 years ahead on wood.

2009年1月28日 · Sorry. Class A chimney is a 2100 degree insulated chimney system. Sometimes called by one of the brand names Metalbestos. So you have the first floor where the stove is. From the stove to the ceiling, you use whats called "smoke pipe" this can be single wall or double wall. That attaches to a ceiling support box that is mounted in the ceiling.
