I called VC this morning to inquire on correct stack height for a new Encore. the manual has a clear graph for the standard 6' pipe but no info on the 8" pipe they require if the stove is to be operated with the doors open. They would not let me speak to a technical person and simply referred me back to my dealer....who doesn't know either as it isn't published. Why they wouldn't let me speak to a knowledgeable person is beyond me.
I am replaceing my non-cat Encore which has been dissapointing, with a cat version. I'm weary of the short burn times and lack of control the non-cat affords. It's a lovely stove during the day, but a PITA overnight and I'm not sure it is very efficient in terms of extracting energy from it's fuel load.
