Hello,
I live in a pre fabricated modular home that sits on a full concrete basement. The house had a Marco, zero clearance fireplace in it. Last year I burned 2 cords of oak through it, and was disappointed with the lack of heat I received in the house. After talking with a few Fireplace stores, I decided to rip the entire unit out.
I want to put a mobile home approved wood burning stove in. Can I use the existing hole in the roof?
The hole has a pipe that is is 12.5 inches wide, with a 6 inch flu, would this act as a double wall system?
I can achieve the minimum distance requirements from the walls with the mobile home approved stove I have picked out.
What I am not sure about is the 12.5 hole that is there and the chimney kit from the original system sufficient for my new 6 inch flu?
Thanks
