I have a quick question for you all. I have read my manual thoroughly and was wondering something. I am looking to move it upstairs on the first floor as it doesnt get the air upstairs the way i want (or as warm as i want). What im wondering is where im gonna put it, as its the only place to, is beside a wall and near a window. There needs to be 2 inches of sidewall clearance. I have that easy on both sides. I will vent thru the wall and the window the stove will be near will have the vent exit the house 14 inches to the right of the window and 13 inches below, looking at it from outside. The manual states the termination needs to be no less than 48 iches below or 48 inches horizontally from doors or opening windows. Then i was doing some calcs on how to get the termination to do this and i can either one of threee things
1. Vent the pipe to the top of the roof line. -- most effective but most expensive
2. I had read on stove sites (but not in my manual) that if you have a outside air intake such as an oak the clearances can be deminished. SO if i was to get a wall thimble that had the built in OAK, is this true.. can clearances be deminished? I had read the 48 inches drops to 12 inches. This would be the easiest and somewhat cheapest.
3. The other is a hahah ( or is it) permantly seal the window. What does this entail as i can find nothing on what a permantly sealed window" entails.
