Can I attach a section of 4" or 3" pellet stove vent pipe to the top of a Harman XXV Top flue adaptor?
I would like to hide the 3 or 4 inch diameter pellet stove pipe by sheathing it inside 6" diameter wood stove pipe. The text in the install manual seems to be contradictory. It seems that that the "12" piece of 4" pellet pipe" that is included in the kit is supposed to go inside the 6" pipe. But, the next sentence says that the top flue adaptor is not approved for use with pellet pipe.
Note also that I would like to install approximately 1 ft of this 6" pipe with pellet pipe inside it above the Harman stove top before turning 90 degrees and passing through a brick wall behind the stove with 3 or 4" pellet pipe.
Here is the text from page 26 of the Harman XXV Installation Manual-
- "XXV Top Flue Option (Harman Part #1-00-677120)
The Top Flue option attaches to the exhaust on
the rear of the stove, and extends it to the top
with a six inch stub.
This gives the appearance of a wood stove and also
allows venting with existing single wall, connector.
A 12 inch piece of 4" pellet vent is included to act as
an insulator only. Note: The top flue adaptor is not
approved for use with pellet pipe. It is only tested
for use with chimney connector (6- inch pipe) into
an existing "class A" chimney.
