I believe they have made some changes to help with the igniter life.

The stove does periodic fire out and burn pot dumping which can lead to more than normal use of an igniter.

You also want to make certain that all of the updates are on the stove you get, there were other issues that have been corrected.

Be certain to pay attention to burn pot maintenance there are automated moving parts.

They are a good stove, I have one. They have corrected many of the issues with them. If you keep up with the maintenance you should be ok. If you have any questions when you get it let me know. Pics when it is installed please.

I have Simpson dura vent. It is good pipe, but I had to really seal some joints with high temp silicone, I kept smelling smoke and could see it seeping out the joints with a flash light. Some of the above recommendations may be better. When the dealer installed my Harman stove he used Simpson too, so that is all I know about.

Nice stove had one installed last month replaced a castile

How are you venting it? Through the roof? Have you decided yet?

I would go straight up and use 4" Selkirk DT pipe. Do it right the 1st time and never worry again.

I bought my mount Vernon in 2009 and have the original ignitor and baffle. It does heat well, but I've had a lt of little electrical problems.
