Hi again, at the end tomorrow arrives my new stove. A question that sourges to me is, if it´s mandatory to seal all pipe tube conections or just the ones which are inside the house like arround the stove and next ones
Thanks in advance.
 
i was under the impression you dont have to seal th esingle wall stove pipe. just push it togeather, the draft is supposed to keep the smoke going the right way.
 
thanks!! exactly at this moment i was reading your blaze king post...
nice stove, old , but nice, but ... just for security... be sure that all the peaces stays where they have to.
 
I will be sealing all the ones near the stove, especially as I'm rear venting, but the ones in the chimney - no
 
Have not sealed any, and have had no problems.
 
I think its only required that you use 3 fasteners to hold the seams together. Sealing is optional. I did it on ours because it didn't take much extra effort.
 
Hey cmon what did you use to seal your liner up with?
 
Sealing is not required. Although, if I had a weak draft I might do so (if the draft couldn't be improved).
