Hi all, I have just moved into a new house with an existing stove and flue system. I've disconnected the old pre-EPA stove and am trying to connect my newer stove to the existing flue. I need a connector to go from the insulated to single-wall but do not know how to identify the brand of the insulated pipe. Unfortunately I do not have a camera so cannot post a picture of it, but can say that at the female end it has a small indented band about 2" from the end, and the last 2" section contains 8 evenly-spaced tabs with raised vertical lines in between. There is also a 1" band around the outside of each pipe, that can be slid into place over the joints. I hope hope hope this sounds familiar to somebody, because the flue is perfectly fine and beautiful, it just needs a connecting piece, and I've got no idea where/whom to contact to purchase one. Anyone recognize the brand? Thank you.

Shining light across was able to make out "Holland Michigan"-- must be Vogelzang. Didn't know they made anything besides camp stoves-- this is very nice flue. I will call them tomorrow. Might long be discontinued-- hope not though. Don't want to have to fabricate part but would be cheaper than replacing 30' of insulated pipe. (Darn it, just want the thing up and running! Without an operational wood stove I feel NERVOUS with winter approaching.
This pipe has been positively identified after two hours of phone research and the incredible good luck of getting the knowledgeable and patient Karen on the phone at the Selkirk help desk (thank you, thank you Karen!) My lovely old class A pipe is a discontinued but still fairly common Hart & Cooley type D or TD and is still supported. The Selkirk adaptor I already have apparently does fit, if one follows instructions and uses a few screws; instructions on the way. (Hart & Cooley TLC, its replacement, mfg'd by Selkirk).
