So let's think ahead 30 years, (well, maybe 20).........................zip.....................here we are in 2030! (time warp).
I've decided to take out my current wood stove, and replace it with a new one. I want to use my existing pipes (let's presume they are not in NEED of replacing, which may or may not be reality, but let's "pretend" ok?) and so I realize (in my case) that I need a stove that has the opening for the pipe, on the top.
Now what..........what else must I consider? The pipe is a "telescoping" pipe, so therefore, any distance variance would be adjustable. Naturally, the shape of the hole on top (and diameter) will have to match up to the pipe, or I'll have to get some sort of adapter I suppose.
What else? I will have to consider selling the old stove, or taking it to the Recycle Center, or the wife will want to make a planter out of it, in the back 40 somewhere. Otherwise, would the new stove pretty much be "plug-n-play" (if you will) or are there other things to think about?
