When I connected my liner to the stove I used only 1 screw. I couldn't get my hands inside to get more than 1 in, is this going to be ok? It does have the connecting collar on the line where it enters the stove collar. I appreciate any help........

JMF1 said:Castiron, yes, that's right. the connecter has four screws attaching it to the liner but only one through the actual stove collar into the connector. There is also a bit of "down pressure" from the liner into the collar making it hard to get the connector out of the stove collar.
JMF1 said:My stove collar does have the predrilled holes in it, I just can't reach the other 2. My connector was tough to get onto the liner when we installed it, must be a different design than yours castiron. It also stated to put in at least 3 screws to hold it on the liner. I really don't want to disassemble and drag that monster out if I don't have to, it's a pain! Thanks to the bypass damper I clean it without moving it.
Hogwildz said:With the weight of that liner, realistically, you don't need any screws. But one would be fine I would think. I have a rigid s.s. double wall with 5' of s.s. flex to the adapter. I got 3 scres in it, but it ain't going anywhere anyways. My liner all together is near 200 lbs I believe.
Hogwildz said:23' double wall insulated rigid connected to 5' flex down to adapter. 28' all together mostly double wall rigid= very heavy
If I ever come acorss the shipping invoice again (buried somewhere), I do believe shipping weight was around 247 lbs with pallet I think. Of course I could be wrong.
