creosote already?

yes i just seen that i am going to have to go with selkirk stuff.. my stainless pipe is selkirk/metalbestos modell ss i am waiting on call now to get the box and snap connector for this pipe.
i just searched back this thread and i did say mobile home, not motor home..motor home is driveable this is not.

yes daksy makes perfect since.. good idea.. i will probably have to cut it down to about 11 to 12 inches height anyway..dont know what sizes are available till they call. thanks for the tip will do that for sure.better than pre drilling and bolts!

This post here you said it...just sayin'. Glad to hear you're working on making the install meet code.

oops guess i did.. sorry my bad.. i was looking where i said mobile home in a couple dif spots, typo on my part.

With the proper installation and flue height that stove will perform correctly - meaning - cook you out of the house!! I'm heating a 16 x 80 with my little Ashley and keep the windows open all winter. Blaze Kings were intended for "Global" warming, not "Mobile" warming. I personally think a smaller stove is in order.

yes i agree with the global warming.. i will have to try to find the burn sweet spot to run clean (as far as creosote) but as cool as possible.. if i have to crack a couple doors so be it, but honestly replacing stove is out of question this year. i got a heck of a deal on this stove for 200 bucks. couldnt pass it up. cant really afford another stove at this point.

anyone know if double wall stove pipe is REQUIRED in mobile home? or is it just recomended? i have over 40 inchs of clearance from walls and will end up with about 18 inch from ceiling.

ok placed the order... i would post the link from my email but it shows order # address and last four of credit card number and so here is just a link to the parts ordered to make the piping up to code..
doing the fresh air bolt down and ground this weekend.

by the way i have searched and searched about our code here and have not found anything that says i have to use double wall black stove pipe so i am going with the single wall since i have WAYYYY more than enough clearance all the way around and up..

if anyone finds anything different please let me know.

thanks for pretty much forcing me to do this )) i feel alot better about it already. will submit pics when done.

You'll be lucky to find a sweet spot with too big of a stove.Doors open may cause smoke spillage from stove.BACKDRAFT.

Single-wall will radiate more heat into your mobile home than double-wall. Not sure that's what you want...

Just a quick comment . . . it sounds as though you've seen the light and realize that most folks here are just trying to be helpful and offer good advice . . . and it sounds as though you are listening . . . stick around Steve . . . I can see you being an asset to this site in the future!

ok here we go, these are for everyone that was on me, i actually appreciate it. it made me get it done rite. the first pic with the round hole was where the stainless was coming into kitchen as you all seen before pics. and the second is almost finished.. i have to screw paneling back up and screw in the metal black finish pieces that came with it. i cut down on all four corners at top about an inch and folded metal out on to roof under the roof flashing and screwed it at ceiling level into ceiling rafters on all four sides.. just waiting on batteries on drill to recharge to put finish strips up. also getting ready to install the 3.5 inch flex tube for fresh air intake in a bit.. taking a break.. so can we now be friends heheheh thanks again!

heres pics forgot to attach on last post

i had it 2 ft higher than anything 10 ft around it to begin with but i got an additional 18 to 24 inches of length by doing this and the draft is much much better now for some reason!

Cant wait to hear how it works when you get done, looking good though.

didn't read the whole thread,
but- you dont need a ceiling support box if you installed a roof support package. with roof support you need a ceiling trim plate, not a support box....

just one more to show it off and i am done, thanks for all the help guys.

A happy ending . . . just not that kind of happy ending. Looks good Steve.

Congrats glad to know it is safe.
