Got my stove installed, but have some questions. How do you guys seal up around the cathedral box to keep cold air from getting down. I was thinking of using caulk but don't know if they make a high temp. So what is a good kind to use. Can I put insulation inside the cathedral box?

Thanks for the help guys and gals
 
Any kind of caulking can be used, the box will barely get warm. Caulk it first then out the trim on it.

Insulation can be used inside the box on only 1 brand that I am aware of. That's the TLC line from hart&cooley. Same company as Selkirk/metalbestos, I'm not sure these other lines offer the insulation blanket though.
