Nice looking install. Really like the wall.

OH SA-WEET! That is one mighty fine looking setup. That should be in VC's glossy. Helluva job.

Very nice! how long did it take to rip the old chimney out and install everything?

Beautiful stove! Just out of curiosity, why did you have to put in a 2 flue chimney?

WE had 1 flue but it was in bad shape and the furnace was tied in to it. needed to relace anyway so we did 2 flues to have the stove

Wow, that's a very appealing hearth. Nice and massive. One of the best installations I've seen here!

That is outstanding.. very nice look all around.. makes me think about setting up something like that one day in my living room which has no existing fireplace..

Very nice install. I miss my freestanding stove so much. Love the stone work.....looks like great room to hang out.

DavidV · Oct 29, 2008

I really admire the work done here. Did you DIY? or hire a pro?

CTBurner · Oct 29, 2008

All Chimney work was done by CHIMNEYWORKS http://www.chimneyworksct.com/ If you need Masons or chimney work these are the ones to get here in S.E. CT. They are very professional and strive to please the customer, They are the best company we have ever worked with and we were more than satified

Now that's just slick :coolsmile:

CTBurner · Oct 29, 2008

thanks

That looks wonderful, totally a pro installation and nice choice of stone.

Are you noticing a lot of heat absorbed from the stone mass and then re-radiated from it as the fire dies down?

glacialhills · Oct 29, 2008

My hinney wants to have a seat on that awesome stone after coming in from snow blowing the driveway...if I could chase away the pets. Super nice job.
