Recently got an estimate to have a chimney installed for my old Jotul combifire #1 and was made to feel like I had the Yugo of woodstoves. Because it has no UL tag and was pre EPA I got the insurance company lecture and such. Then they steered me to a Pacific Energy true north model. All said and done my estimate was 10% of what I paid for the hunting shack and property.
Being the cheepskate I am, which is what got me into this situation, I am thinking of installing it myself with Supervent components or Duravent components and my own reduced clearance kit. Is it worth having it done with a modern stove? Should I cut my losses on the Combifire?
