Can anyone spot what is wrong? :)
 
Shouldn't the exhaust be pointed at the big black thing so it stays warm? ;)
 
As long as they have an OAK, they're all set
 
Actually it was a craigslist add for a oil tank. They converted their heating to a pellet stove. Go Figure.
 
I hope no children live there
 
you guys re missing it.......
The problem is, the house is not level !!;em
 
If you look closely you will notice the window is nailed shut. Problem solved.

I thought it was a toss up between the oak downhill into snow bank or the hip roof draining in front of window?:)
 
I've seen a couple of installs locally that are done by taking the bottom window out putting a sheet of plywood in it's place and sticking the pipe thru the plywood.
At least the window won't open when installed this way however I'm sure an insurance company wouldn't like it.
 
Two right angle bends in the vent, window proximity, oil tank proximity.

I don't even want to see inside where the stove is :eek:

Probably sitting on the couch >>
 
A wood piece fastened into the window track to prevent it from opening is sufficient
