Active since 1995, Hearth.com is THE place on the internet for free information and advice about wood stoves, pellet stoves and other energy saving equipment.
We strive to provide opinions, articles, discussions and history related to Hearth Products and in a more general sense, energy issues.
We promote the EFFICIENT, RESPONSIBLE, CLEAN and SAFE use of all fuels, whether renewable or fossil.
The only types we will use for wood stoves are either heavy wall flex liners if the stove will be a primary heat source or a mid weight liner for a weekend burner. But light wall liners will work ok as long as you burn correctly and maintain them correctly as well. My pricing will be totally different than your so it is not worth comparing. The only type I would say you absolutly do not want to install is the 2ply smooth wall liner. It is absolute junk
That is light wall flex liner it will work fine and if you are on a tight buget that is probably what you will end up with. It is not as durable as the heavier stuff but as long as you don't abuse it it should give you a good lifespan
This is who I bought mine from:

Rockford Chimney is another. I used the 316 liner and I have no experience with the 304. I didn't have any issues ever.

Despite how it looks in the pictures it doesn't flex that much. Plan on getting an appliance adapter and the proper type of 30 degree SS elbow.
That depends on the liner some flex allot actually the heavier wall liners flex more also

This is the cheapest I can find but I am not sure of the quality. Looks like I adhere the insulation to the pipe and then wrap it with wire mesh, Thoughts?
After you select a size a bunch of options become available below.
Well for Canadian it says free shipping but upon talking to customer service they would charge you through fed-ex. not such a good deal for Canadians.

That's interesting. Never would have thought.
That is correct. My instructions stated to glue the insulation with the provided spray glue, tape the seam and several areas along the run with the provided foil tape then install the mesh sock.

Rockford website does say Free Shipping, to the lower 48 states. But they did offer a 10% discount on their liner kits, that might take the shipping cost down to nothing?
