Hello All!
I have been reading the post on this site for about two weeks and you folks are a fountain of information.
I am installing my woodstove that I got a good price on. I set it up outside to figure out how it works before I brought it inside...(the wife)
Now I am at the point where I have to put in a heat shield and wanted to get your opinions.
I am going to do either brick or tile for the floor. The board that I have the stove on now is 1/2 inch thick.
If I go with a double insulated pipe to the class A pipe. do I need to shield the back wall where the pipe will be about 6.5 inches from the wall?
I am planning to shield the side and back of the stove because the side clearance is only 17" on each side.
With the heat shield that I am planning for the wall, I also have the sheild that attatches to the stove itself. (I did not try the heat shield outside to see how effective it was)
If you can take a look at my pictures and give me some ideas as far as stove pipe and what might look nice surounding the stove, that would be great.
Thanks
