My OAK decision

[hossthehermit]

My situation would require 14' horizontal, 90 ° down, 7' vertical, 90 ° over , 6" horizontal. Frost, condensation, dripping water, tripping hazard.

What does exhaust vent run look like?

Out, 2' horiz., 90 up, 3' vert., 90 over, 2' horiz, into masonry chimney. It's all 4", required for the Revolution anyway.

Maybe you could use the chimney flue as a chase for your OAK??

Are we sure Pook didn't write this?

I don't think that article applies to pellet stoves. Pellet stoves being forced-air and fireplaces being natural draft.

If you are having your stove installed, always have it done... even if you decide to remove it for whatever reason... I regret taking the advice I was given not to bother installing it, cause now I have no simple choice... but I think one is going in at some point soon, so I can decide first hand the benefits. Mine is short though, one 45 and less than a foot to an outside wall.
