Just got my...

new to me insert. It's a Buck Stove Model 91. Found her on CL for five hundred big ones. A lot less than a new one.
I do appreciate all the advice given here on hearth.com. You can learn a lot here.
This will replace the old Black Bart. I'm hoping to get long burns with less wood and have no problem heating the house.

Yup, it is big and heavy, does have a cat and an 8" flue outlet. I was thinking about tapering down to a 6" liner to help the draft and maybe hold more heat. Probably not a good idea though, I suppose.

I love my Buck 21 and am ready to get her going again! Congrats on the new stove.

consult the manual, but yes i believ the 91 was tested and approved for a 6 or 8" liner. the 6 will reduce draft not increase it fyi but 6" is easier to install...
i've installed several earthstove bv400 stoves(8" collar) with 6" liner with good results, but it was tested and approved by lennox..
