Hi Gang, I have serious overdraft issues with my chimney. Just had a key damper installed and am looking for a good manometer to measure my draft going up. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

A Dwyer mark II inclined manometer would work fine and are reasonable. I think I paid around 30 for ours. I just added a piece of 1/4 copper tubing so I can place ours in the hot flue.
 
Thanks Daksy and Laynes. That's all I needed.
 
yes, the mark II. However, the kit comes with a plastic 1/4" barb fitting. This will melt quickly mounted in the stovepipe. Get yourself some 1/4" brass flare unions, 1/4" nuts, & about 24" of 1/4" brass pipe



 
Great photos. Thanks.
