I have an englander 30 and am running the single walled pipe straight up thru the ceiling. I have measured the length and even cut a little short. I cannot seem to squeeze the pipe between the ceiling and the stove. What is the trick?
Stuid question 2..what is the trick to get the pipe in.

Yep, call the local hardware store and ask if they have a 6" stove pipe slip connector. I saw one in our True Value last week. It wasn't Simpson brand, but this is the idea:

I found that the stove pipe adapter (the piece that connects to the Class A chimney) had about 4 inches of pipe that slipped into the top piece of stove pipe. The top of the stove also had a little extra play. Between those two I was able to squeeze it in, but I also had 2 elbows to help me maneuver...

Thanks for the tip on the slip oollar. I went to farm and home and picked one up. It did the trick. Thanks for all the help. I have a fire going now.
