I need to increase the chimney opening from 6” round to 8” round. The chimney facing is typical 4” brick and the chimney liner is your typical clay tile liner. I was thinking to first encapsulate the wall and hearth with plastic so as I would be in a plastic bubble and run HVAC flex from the bubble to a window fan to the closest window to exhaust the dust. Amazon sells an 8” round dry drill masonry bit. Rather than chipping out the brick and possibly cracking surrounding brick and matching existing grout never happens.
I welcome comments. The stove I want to install is the Grandma Bear .
Thanks,
Frank
