Hey all,
You guys were really helpful with my other thread, so I thought I'd take done of the advice and buy a flue thermometer.
Well... I just received a flueguard that I purchased on Amazon. I drilled the two holes (3/16 inside and 1/4 outside) just fine, but when I went to actually install the thermometer,I find that the eyelet is too long to fit between the two stove walls, so it doesn't sit snug against the outer wall of the pipe, because the other end is butting up against the outside of the inner pipe.
I'm sure I can cut the eyelet down a bit to make it fit, but not sure this is the best approach... I can also drill the inside hole to 1/4inch, but I'm worried that'll let too much gas from inside the inner pipe into the outer pipe.
I have a Selkirk DSP telescoping stove pipe that I'm attaching this to.
I'm testing the stove now to see if it's leaky, I put the eyelet inside the magnet, instead of on the outside like the instructions say. This way the magnet sits right against the pipe. Any danger in this?
Thoughts?
