Englander NC30 stove.
6" single wall to ceiling, transitions to stainless
triple wall through attic and out roof.
Everything purchased at Home Depot,
and I think the pipe is called Dura-something.
Went to brush the pipes today and noticed
there's no insulation in my triple wall pipe.
I can see all the way through where there was insulation.
It was there when I installed it last year.
WTH?

Are you sure you are seeing through where there was insulation and not seeing through the airspace?

Thanks for the reply.
I was just looking at the same pipe (it's DuraVent) on Home Depot dotcom,
and yes, I'm apparently looking down the airspace between the outer two walls.
I could have sworn there was insulation in there when
I installed it in fall '19, but I guess I'm remembering it wrong.

Duraplus is the triple wall stuff.
