Hello
Looks like some sparks may have spit out. This can happen if there is no vertical rise in the pellet stove installation. That is what I would question.

DANBURY -- A fire that badly damaged a Wheeler Street home on Friday might have been started by a pellet stove, according to the homeowner.
The fire started at about 1:15 Friday afternoon and quickly spread from the small ranch house to its attached garage.
Kevin Paige said the fire probably started near his home's pellet stove. The stove was in the room next to the garage.
Deputy Fire Marshal James Russell is investigating the cause of the fire, which the fire department said Friday was probably accidental.
When firefighters arrived, the garage was completely engulfed and reduced to charred timbers. The fire also scorched a car next to the garage and melted the plastic sheeting over a nearby shed.
Assistant Fire Chief Steve Williams said that about half the home had severe smoke and water damage.
Williams said crews from the city's Fire Department fought the blaze along with volunteers from the Mill Plain, King Street and Germantown companies. City police and emergency services workers were also at the scene.
There were no injuries involved. Firefighters found Paige's two cats hiding in the basement. Both survived the blaze.
Paige, the owner of Buttheads, a tobacco store on Padanaram Road, took the fire and the damage it did with some stoicism.
"I have my homeowner's insurance policy paid up," he said. "That's what we have insurance for."
