Hey guys. I'm about to install a small Trolla woodstove in my kitchen. It'll be sitting on
the existing slate floor (maye up on an additional piece of stone). I plan to send the pipe straight up, through the ceiling. The
wall behind the stove is wood wainscoting and drywall above. I would like to
protect the wall with something inexpensive but decent to look at, and have it reflect heat back in
the room. I was thinking of putting a sheet of corrugated galvanized roofing steel (or flat sheet) with maybe a sheet of durock
behind it, with an inch or so of airspace between this sandwich and the wall. Does this sound
safe and will it reflect heat back into the room? Also, how close do you think I can put the stove to this
configuration?
Thanks a million.
