Stove only installation design service
Perhaps you already have a liner in place, or a pumice chimney or you've had your existing chimney inspected and given the okay. If so then we can help design how to connect your stove up to the chimney, no problem. Of course we can also work through how big your hearth has to be and the clearances needed around your stove.
We generally don't advise just installing a stove on an uninsulated chimney because of potential problems caused by tar deposits - it's usually a much better idea to install an insulated liner and the chimney will tend to work better too.
When installing a stove to an existing masonry chimney only the single skin flue pipe runs from the stove up to the register plate.The register plate has an access hatch for sweeping.
