Masonry Stove: Chimney

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Well, this took longer than we thought it would.

But at last, the chimney is installed. The holdup was getting the chimney pipe pieces. Used to be that everything was available locally, from a choice of sellers. Everyone has gone to stocking less and directing customers to order online and have it shipped to the store for pickup.

To be fair, I understand this trend. I understand the decision not to stock less common items in the store. But the problem for the buyer is that hands on information is extremely important. Sometimes its a matter of judging the quality. Or fit. Is it the right size? The website information isn’t always accurate on this. Often it’s just an approximate size, or worse, some sellers don’t know the difference between height, width, and depth. Sometimes the item sent doesn’t look anything like the picture. Or it’d flawed or damaged. Yes, they say free returns, but there’s another trip we have to take and more time lost.

Another holdup is that shipping is not as fast as it used to be, so it took awhile. The two long pieces od chimney pipe were ordered at the same time but arrived on different days! For awhile we were thinking one of them had gotten lost. Thankfully, everything arrived and everything fit.

If you haven’t been following this series, then you may be wondering why the chimney exits from the bottom of the stove. I’ll refer you back to my introductory post, with more detail about how a masonry stove works. The gist of it is that the firebox is contained in a large hollow masonry “bell.” The bell warms up and retains the heat, which radiates into the room, keeping it warm for most of the day. To better retain that heat, the chimney flue is at the bottom of the bell, so that the coolest air exits the chimney and keeps heat loss to a minimum. Very different from the common wood stove or fireplace.

So there it is, curing and ready for a breaking in fire. We’ve got a cold front heading our way, so that should be soon.
