Ran the stove, Harmann XXV, last winter without an OAK. Finally got around to installing it before firing it up. Even though the final pipe is 4" you can really feel it sucking in the air. Check it out and let me know what you think. http://home.comcast.net/~habsfan/oak/oak.htm After a few days of burning already notice that the glass is hardly dirty where last year it would get dirty within a day or two.
 
looks good I just installed mine yesterday as well . I don't have any pics yet as I have been waiting for the chimney. My stove install instructions say that it has to have
OA so I did it right away .

Mine is also 4" and makes a sucking noise at the inlet. Makes me wonder why a 3" is all that`s required.
