Been reading this fourm for 3 stright days and what a welth of information! The plan is to install a free standing stove where the existing heatdisapator is. The alcove is 66" wide to the framing and 26 ish deep. I have been looking at the England 13nch or the England Madison if I can find one. The chase is the same 66x26 all the way up so should have plenty of room for new class A pipe from cieling up and double wall from stove to cieling. Is it feasable to install one of the two stoves I mentioned if not suggest one that is in the same price range please.
Still not sure what to finish out the inside of the chase with I like the look of tile but it's cheaper and faster to just sheet rock it. I guess it will come down to clearances as to and time/money as to sheet rock vs tile.
1,800 sq ft single story, secondary heat sorce, I have no problem extending the hearth/floor protection out into the room. I have been searching alcove installs all day and have seen some really nice work by some of the members here. Thanks for any advice.
