Good Morning,
I asked a couple of weeks ago about a pellet stove installer in MA, but still didn't find one.
Who did you use for the installation? How much did you pay?
Thank you!

What town in MA?
 
Last year I called around to a bunch of places here on the Cape to install my stove. I think I started looking for an installer in October. I was getting answers like "We can send someone out there to have a look in December and maybe get your stove installed by late February". That wouldn't work for me.

So I installed it myself. I wouldn't have attempted it if I didn't gt lots of great advice from the fine folks in here. They helped me out more than they will ever know.

I had bought the stove used for cheap $$$. So I built a hearth using plywood, dura-rock and walkway pavers. I used polymeric sand as the mortar/grout. It came out great. I bought my Simpson Dura-vent from a local Stove shop (Sandwich Stove Shop) They didn't have the best prices on the vent pipe. But I wanted to establish a contact with a local dealer if I got into real trouble. If I remember right the Wood Burning Appliance permit cost me about $20.00. The town inspector approved my install and we had a long talk about the stove and how it works (I think he got one for himself).

I don't remember the exact amounts but the total install cost less than $500 including the stove.

In my case I vented vertically up to the cathedral ceiling and straight to the roof. I used to be in construction so roofing around the vent was no problem.

Mostly I just followed the stove manufacturers instructions.

Look into it, It's not that hard.
