Thanks started with a hole cut in drywall from old covered over fireplace. Took 3 months but got it finished!

 

[GENECOP]

Don't know why you mounted everything sideways but hey to each his own....Otherwise it looks good.

I'm not real tech savvy! Couldn't figure out how to flip pic?

Sounds like something I would have done, mine sometimes come out upside down..

The stove image is rotated now. Harmony restored. Lookin good dalt!

 

[fossil]

That's a beautiful installation, of which you should be very proud. Excellent work!

Is there going to be a mantel shield? If I recall the Isle Royale needs a generous clearance above it to combustibles. If so a discrete mantel shield would be advised.

 

[dalt]

As of now no mantle shield. The stove sticks out about 4" from opening. So not getting a lot of the heat but would be a good idea I'll look into! Thanks

 

[dalt]

Thanks for aligning the pic! I was struggling. Ha

 

[begreen]

Do you have a before picture?

 

[dalt]

Yes I will try and post my start to finish this weekend. Pics on an older phone.

Nice-looking stove and install.

That would make sense for a heat-blower like the IR.
May be a 'photo fooler' but in the pic it looks like it is miles up to that mantle....
