If this is a joke,.please realize that others may be reading this and think it is a legitimate solution - leading to home fires.
And if this was not a joke, no problem. But I would advise to stop what you are doing and get a professional. Because this will make you burn down your house, without a doubt.

I think he is "pulling your leg" or "whatever"---all that sounds unsafe to me but I know "nothing about any of all this" but one question that was never answered: "Are you going to install a full insulated stainless liner"...if not you can have your chocolate all by yourself...clancey
I believe he is yes. I am pretty sure they are installing a liner because that is a listed liner top plate. But it look to me like it is too small for the stove they are using.
No. Please do not do this. With aluminum tape and hvac parts
!!
Of course I was joking. Yes. All the parts needed for correct installment to code are sitting on my garage floor. Installation to begin tomorrow.
If you guys remember a few years back yous helped me install my fisher grandpabear with a top flu in my living room. All is good and have had 2 very warm winters.
My chimneys are getting swept out too this weekend

Good that was my assumption. Is it a 6" liner though? If so how tall is it?No. Please do not do this. With aluminum tape and hvac parts

If it is 6" it may cause problems. Those stoves actually work best on 7". How tall is the chimney?
And yeah there was no need to pull that heatform unless the insert wouldn't fit in it. And certainly no need to pull the throat lintel etc.
I hope you didn't pay much for that. Personally I would not install that for someone.
Yes but still badly hacked up. I don't know the market by you but here 275 will get you one in good condition ready to install. Yours would go for scrap value so maybe $50
As of right now I have 6
4 X 8 sheets of aluminum for heat shields and a complete set of new fire bricks for Fisher stoves.

I paid 275 for the Baby Bear.
Live and learn.
