13-NC Install

[jp57]

<div class="bbWrapper">Hi guys, I just joined this morning and was hoping someone could help me out or point me in the right direction. I&#039;ve been lurking for a few days doing some reading and finally needed to register to ask for some advice.<br /> <br /> I just recently purchased a slightly used 13-NC to replace a god-knows-how-old Franklin Olympic wood stove. We went to hook up the brand new 6&quot; black pipe that I bought and the pipe does not fit into the collar on the 13-NC. Am i just missing something here or is there a trick/other part needed to fit the pipe in? There is a label on the pipe that indicates the direction of the flow so I believe I&#039;m using the correct end and have it oriented properly.<br /> <br /> Thanks and please forgive if this information is already posted on here somewhere and I just missed it.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Just to make sure we cover the basics. The crimped (wrinkly) end of the pipe goes down into the collar. (is this single wall pipe, or double?)</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">It is single wall.<br /> <br /> And actually, the pipe does not have a crimped end. It is smooth, but does appear to be a bit tapered when compared to the other end. The name of the brand escapes me right now, I&#039;m at work and don&#039;t have the pipe with me.<br /> <br /> Could it be that I was given the wrong stuff? I went to a stove/fireplace store for the pipe, not a Depot or Lowe&#039;s to try to make sure that I get the correct stuff.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">i&#039;ll let someone else respond, but it sounds to me like you have the wrong one. like a pipe with two female ends. I dunno. I don&#039;t remember seeing a 3ft+ section of pipe like that, though. usually 6&quot;-12&quot; when it&#039;s Male/Male like that.<br /> <br /> How long is this section of pipe?</div>

 

[jp57]

<div class="bbWrapper">It&#039;s a 24&quot; section of black pipe.<br /> <br /> I also have a slip connector too to make up the total height I need to reach the chimney opening.<br /> <br /> Thanks for the help. I&#039;d like to be able to go back to the store with some knowledge.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I may have a lot of posts, but don&#039;t mistake that for a lot of knowledge. Let someone else weigh in on this...</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Looks like I just need to get a stove top adapter: &quot;AC-1677 Stovetop Adapter - For 6&quot; Pipe (2 lbs. each)&quot;.<br /> <br /> Can&#039;t believe that Englander wants $12.50 to ship a 2lb pipe of pipe. Oh well, the stove is useless with out it so might as well go and order it.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">That&#039;s weird to me. I thought the 12 and the 13 were pretty much the same stoves. My 12 has the MALE (crimped) end of a 6&quot; pipe slid right down into it. I made cuts on opposite sides for the damper&#039;s rod, otherwise you can&#039;t slide the pipe down quite far enough.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Danno many of the 22 gauge welded seam single wall pipes don&#039;t have a crimped end on them.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Check with local stove shops and online. That AC-1677 Stovetop Adapter is actually just a Simpson Dura Vent 1677 stove top adapter and you might find one locally or somewhere online with cheaper shipping.<br /> <br /> Like here:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.ventingdirect.com/simpson-dura-vent-1677-6-single-wall-stovetop-adapter/p646315" target="_blank" class="link link--external" data-proxy-href="/talk/proxy.php?link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ventingdirect.com%2Fsimpson-dura-vent-1677-6-single-wall-stovetop-adapter%2Fp646315&amp;hash=a6e99bc2191799e14bb23bb51fb76931" rel="noopener">http://www.ventingdirect.com/simpson-dura-vent-1677-6-single-wall-stovetop-adapter/p646315</a></div>
