Once my stove top temp gets to about 400 a bizzare humming noise emminates from the flue collar/ secondary tube area and goes away once the stove top hits 600ish.
humms cause.......doesn't know the words? sorry, couldn't resist. wish i could help. could it be associated with the draft both in the stove or in the pipe? does it go away if you change the amount of draft? i know my steel summit creaks and groans as much as i do when i start it up or close it down from a hot fire. might be associated with material expansion and contraction.

I don't have a 13 but mine, when it gets up to that temp range starts to have a grinding noise when secondaries are blazing. May just be expansion and contraction.
