Keyman never showed up and waiting around for him caused us a late start
Fellow member Steve Bass and I installed Cath's used Winter warm today
The WinterWarm small was in excellent condition nice Black ceramic color It show no signs of abuse and the cat combustor was in perfect condition
It does need a damper gasket but that is about it. The liner was a Magnaflex kit Decent quality for the price range I would purchase one again
We started out duct taping the leading end after we made some cuts to form a cone shape using 2.5 lb weight as washers .We attached them to either pull with
a rope or if getting stuck the ability on pulling it back out I'm on the roof ,Steve pulling the rope from below we edged the liner down .8/12 clay flues not lined up that well.
a couple ot times back and forth gaining a little ground as it went finally if made it all the way down
Cath's husband Craig then cut out the damper frame pulled the liner threw and with a fine cutting wheel in a 4/5" grinder made a clean cut removing the duct tape cone
Next we positioned the insert in front of the opening using pieces of 1/2" black iron pipe we setup the insert to be rolled in and out I measured out the damper opening and the
liner pipe location and cut a damper plate Craig fastened in in place with tapcons.
This part went smoothly the difficulty was the insert hole did not line up with the liner position. Boy do I wish I had the off set box There was not enough room to use an adjustable 90
elbow .real hard to work in a 4" space. Finally Craig and I figured we only needed part of the 90 elbow we took it apart and use the crimp end anther other end and rejoined the swivel joint it worked. Rolling in the insert with Steve, Craig, and I maneuvered the retrofitted elbow, the liner and stove position, finally we got it connected. This was the most difficult part of the entire job, We got some sheet metal screws in the connection and I gasket cemented the stove collar, connection the liner connection, and a generous glob over the retrofitted elbow joint
Craig headed to the f roof for the final time and t cut the liner to length installed the flue cover ant termination Cap. Steve started picking up the tools and I finished sealing
the damper plate and liner opening..
Good luck with you stove Cath and Craig It was a real pleasure to meet member Steve Bass, Cath, and her husband Craig
