Found these gems of installs today and thought I'd share with the group!

So these are photos of a brand new install, a DIY job. From what I understand the occupant of the house is a renter and said his landlord "gave him permission" to do the install :eek: He was concerned about the rising costs of heating this winter and that is what prompted him to look at stoves and wood burning for heat. Inner and outer pipe are single walI he said. Linked our site to the posts for obvious reasons.

This is from a real estate listing. The house is for sale north of me. Just does not look like good at all. The second photo showing the exterior is the chimney I assume he hooked into. I cannot tell from the photos if it is properly lined or not. Seeing as to what's going on inside, I'll assume it isn't.

Sadly I think there will be a lot of this going on this year.
