I am getting ready to do my liner this weekend but am trying to come up with an acceptable way to hook 4" liner to 3" stove vent. Breckwell made a 4" adapter but there is none to be had that I can fine.

Is it ok to put 3-4 increaser directly off of stove than hook liner to that? Chimney liner depot has a S.S. increaser could hook to stove seal with high temp caulk.
 
Well yeah you obviously need a stainless 3 to 4 increaser. What is the problem?
 
Hopefully none which is why I'm checking. Wasn't sure if it would be better to come off stove in a double wall pipe make the transition to 4" than the liner or if just a single wall SS increaser and straight to the liner would work which sounds like it's ok to do.
 
Do a 3" to 4" with a t at the stove and you will be fine
 
Your vent vendor should have a solution they can sell you. I have one of these at the end of my vent: (broken link removed to http://www.icc-rsf.com/main.php?t=chem_produits&i=67&d=&l=en)
The bottom comes off so I can easily get a brush up there to clean it out.
 
I have a P23i as well, last year was my first season as a pellet newbie. As "fmsm" posted earlier, go online and buy a SS 3-4" T and you'll be good to go! I'm using one with approx. 25' vertical of 4" flex, and my first season was a pleasure. I'm actually bummed that oil prices are now making pellets marginally worth the trouble!
