Down To Only The Chimney

The last $2000 Into The Project

The Chimney base is set and ready for the rest of the 22 feet.

 

A touch more Grout work to make it all look a little nicer, but that can be done over the summer.



A couple more tee's and the draft control is all that is left to finish inside,


and it will be a good job finished!

In With The New

The Yukon Eagle Husky I finally sitting in its new home.



Next step is making all the needed connections, Fuel oil, electrical and of course the plenums and duct work. The rest of the chimney is on order and can be up in a matter of 40 minutes or so once it arrives.

$500 Later

And I Am Through The Wall

It's a large jump in price from the 6- inch Selkirk HT (high temp) chimney pipe to the 8- inch.


 

As much as I wanted to send the HT through the concrete, it simply could not happen, a 10- inch diameter pipe simply will not fit through a 9 1/2- inch hole. After working out exactly what I could fit through the exiting 32- inches of concrete I opted for the best I could by using the double-wall stove pipe and still had enough room to wrap insulation around it.




The quality of the products used is the best, all stainless steel, so I shouldn't have to worry about anything needing replacement for a good number of years. So in reality I guess the cost is justifiable. There's no reason to buy a top end furnace and connect it to a chimney that is not up to the job.
