how to pipe my stove into existing chimney

[csb41502]

now that i know i can find pellets to run my pellet stove,i want to pipe it into my existing chimney.it used to be a fireplace that was filled in with concrete and has either a 6 or 8 inch round hole for the exhaust into the chimney.do they make adapters to do this?do i still need to keep a cleanout tee on the pipe?i cant put it on any walls,cause this house has way too many windows and i cant keep it away from a window for the piping

by code and mfger recommendations, you must run a 3 or 4" liner all the way up the existing to a cap.

Yep, liner all the way up

where can i buy the pipe and cap to line the chimney? how about a cleanout tee?will that still need to be used?

 

[briansol]

local stove store? amazon? hundreds of places online that sell pellet pipe and clamps. A t comes in handy if your stove doesn't have a trap door/cleanout on it so you don't have to undo the whole thing every time you want to clean it.

take a look at this kit (broken link removed to http://www.rockfordchimneysupply.com/chimney-liner-kit.php) the removable snout on the T is actually made just for this situation . there's a diy video link on that page on how to do it .

i used the same kit . nice quality and good service .

This may help you I am not sure if this is the setup you have from your description. But this setup provides and OAK and an exhaust thru the the 6 inch opening

if i put the stove caddy corner,i can keep the pipe 19" away from a window? would that be ok? i need to go this route cause i just took the round cover off the chimney flu inside the house and thats filled in with concrete too! so now im back to trying to find clearances around windows?will i have to go above the roof line or not?:

Hello
If you want the liner system made for pellet stoves, get the Selkirk Masonry Conversion kit. It out performs everything else. Mine works super!
