Hi there- I am planning to install a similar woodstove...through the roof with no attic above/vaulted ceiling. Some folks have been warning me about installing a wood stove through the roof because on vaulted/non-attic rooms the heat from the stove can cause ice damming issues because the insulation isn't as good as installing it in a room that has an attic above it. Have you ever had issues with this? I live in the upper midwest- Michigan. Thank you for the advice!

Nice job. You made it look so easy. Did you renail those shingles that you took out on the upper side of flashing, or did you just caulk the shingles back down. How many nails are you putting in flashing. And are they 1" roofing nails. I never did this type of job, but i know i can do it. I been looking at different videos. Some guys i seen dont put a beed of caulk on the bottom of the flashing. Im just not sure about that also. Im in a high wind, and i do get heavy rain from time to time. What type of caulking are you using, I installed a furnace in my garage, and this is the last thing i have to do. My stove pipe parts are coming this week. Do you have any other video of you doing more of these. Thank you. If you could just answer a few of my questions, i would appreciate it.

Hello I have a concern about insulation behind the insert unit or in the chimney framing . The outside wall for chimney is plywood and plywood panels, the inside wall will be sheet rock. Of course none goes close by the fireplace but up inside the 15ft framing leading to roof is open air which will come through the internal walls

What is the purpose of the mesh? Did you only need that because you have carpeting underneath?
@mrEnergy511
@mrEnergy511 6 ай бұрын
The metal lath is for the mortar to grab onto. Concrete with steel is much stronger and will prevent cracking. The carpet is NOT relevant take it out or leave it. If you remove the carpet and you have a wood subfloor you will need to nail down some metal lath to keep the mortar from cracking. If you have a concrete slab i would use some large format tile mortar... thanks for the question

My fire place looks similar to that but has a gas line, is it possible to burn wood in a gas fireplace? Someone in our neighborhood app once commented the gas line was a log starter. Thoughts?
@mrEnergy511
@mrEnergy511 7 ай бұрын
Absolutely do not burn wood in a gas fireplace. That being said it is definitely possible that the gas line is a log starter. Is it an open fireplace like the one in the photo. A gas fireplace would be airtight and have a sealed glass front (not a folding glass door). Decorative glass doors can be added to a wood fireplace but they can be opened. The best way to know is to look inside the fireplace and see if there is a damper that you can open and close. The 3rd possibility is that you have a vent free fireplace. If that it the case there would be no venting in the top and you absolutely should burn wood. I don't recommend using a vent free fireplace at all. See this link for an article about the hazard of vent free fireplaces. www.maplemtnfireplace.com/vent-free

Pizza oven - in wood insert: refractory bricks on the sides, 2-3mm steel plate on top (plate surface = insert surface - chimney flue surface) thin sheet metal folded like a box/flame guard, slate tiles (and/or small electric oven rack) to limit heating to metal plate level makes excellent pizza not very good for focaccia or bread (too muche heat on surface, & not such thermal mass maybe)

You are 100% right. These prefab fireplaces are not made for cold weather. The are for aesthetics only. You would want to replace it with a more efficient heat rated airtight fireplace. Even a freestanding wood stove would be a much better option and more efficient.
