Well, the guys got here today and checked everything out and the grand total for everything is...2300.00.... I am so discouraged....makes me second guess the thought of a wood stove and more toward a pellet stove, but the wife wont hear of it....going to take some extra time to afford that much

Sounds like a fairly easy install. If you're fairly handy doing the work yourself should be easy and save you a bundle.

My dad and I did a very similar setup on my house. My chimney was a little taller. The hardest/longest part was getting through the concrete blocks but not a hard job at all, just took a little patience.
