About to install a probe thermometer through new double walled stovepipe, to replace a magnetic thermometer on outside of single walled pipe.
If the flue gas temp is about double the temp on the outside of single wall pipe, and my Dealer says to not exceed 550 on the outside of single wall, can I assume my probe thermometer readings should be kept under 1100? Is 1100 safe?
I am asking because some other threads here seem to indicate that flue gas at 1000 is a "Yikes!" type of condition. Thanks!
