Is galv. duct for a pellet furnace bad?

[dmaclaren]

Is the heat out of the pellet furnace like Harman pf100 too hot for galv. duct? What do you use?

Furnaces use high CFM blowers much like the high BTU Oil, Propane and Natural gas furnaces.. The higher CFM blower cools more than the low CFM stove blowers. I doubt you will see much higher than 100ºF. You shouldn't see any issues.

I used a universal plenum kit. Looks galvanized to me. No problems here.

I used galvanized furnace ducting.

I must be the only one using titanium then....maybe its overkill. Galvi is the norm, and should do just fine.

The scrappers do not know about the titanium?

Not sure about the PF100, my Revolution requires the supply air ducting to be rated at a minimum of 250 degrees. Mine is stainless. Check your manual and rating of the duct.
