2026/2027 season prep - what all are you doing?
I'm curious what others are doing to prep for the upcoming season.
My setup modifications for this year are as follows:
2440 Cat C / 6" double wall pipe inside
-Full chimney and stove cleaning complete
-Added 3' exterior section and guy support to the chimney - my installer apparently didn't read the part where 90's deduct from the overall vertical height. I added 3' last year which helped but didn't fully irradicate the back buffing. Hopeful this year the draft will be where it needs to be to get slower burns without the "cabin scent air freshener"
-re-gasketed the doors, griddle, and ash pan
- sealed most of the joints of the interior stove pipe.
