We just bought a new house with a fireplace.  I want to remove it and install my amaizablaze corn stove.  I have had this stove for a few years and it works good.  It is an insert model that was set up to be freestanding.  I do plan on burning straight corn.  The manufacturer recommends just installing a short piece of pipe up into the masonry chimney.  Would this be acceptable?  I know I will have to pull the stove at the end of the year and clean the fly ash.
