I have just installed this exact system in my pole garage. I was amazed at how many obstacles I encountered while doing the project. First, after building the proper thimble box inside, n moving to the outside, that where the problems began. We installed the outer wall thimble mount, then proceeded to mount the pipe shelf bracket. (No overhang to work around, just straight shot up.) It's good we pre-fit these with the base 3 way pipe. We discovered, in order to get the 3 way into position, the shelf had to be loose from the wall. Those bolt were behind the outer wall thimble! So everything had to be loose n it was a royal bitch to tighten everything down. After that, we fit 2, 3' sections together. After locking into place, they were still able to pull away from other pipe. Next, we went to screw the upper pipe bracket fast to the top of shop. These holes were not big enough to accommodate the fasteners we had to use to withstand the wind we get here. Lastly, the chimney cap that just snaps into place, would have blown off the 1st wind storm we got. So, we re-enforced all connected pipe with self tapping screws. And the chimney cap, we installed 1" spacers with self tapping screws. Still not sure it will withstand the wind we get here. Make sure you are not planning on a breeze install. If you want it done right, you need to know what you are doing, and the way this stuff goes together is not what it seems. There was more work involved than people make it out to be. I might be petty, but this deals with fire, so proceed with caution.
Very timely video for me! I bought an Ember Hearth fireplace insert that I will install in my pole barn shop as free standing. Every step, including the square-to-round transition is exactly what I want to do! Thanks! Excellent video!
Thanks brother, I appreciate it. That was my exact situation, pulling out the old 80’s wood burning stove from my fireplace and reusing it in my garage.
Thank you for posting your install. Very much!! Dealing with issues with our installer. Figured from day one I'd be installing it myself but good grief. Our soffets do stick out on all for sides of dwelling more than yours do. Hoping I can figure this out and safely as that is all that counts. You did excellently. Appreciate your sharing!
Very cool! Especially so because that's MY Buck Stove. It was here when I moved in in 1990. 33+ years of use & no problems. It'll cook u right out of the house. Only difference i see is your's is free-standing & mine was installed as an insert in the original fureplace (home built in 1951). Not sure if yours has the 2 speed fan. If so, you're gonna love it.
I love this video they're fixing to tear a big barn across the Road from me thank you very very much I love the outcome it's absolutely beautiful and the product information is very good thank you so much😊
Very nice, thanks for posting... I have the same stove. To make it cheaper and easier, I'm just going to put my stove outside on the deck and blow the warm air indoors...
Thank you for doing this video! I need to do the same with my woodstove setup, and you answered a lot of questions I had. I was really pulling my hair out trying to figure the best, and safest way to go through the wall. You are a God-send!
unfortunately Patriot did not follow the NFPA211 recommendations for code compliant installation. Wood behind the cement board. no vertical air space, shield not wide enough for compliance, and a few other issues..
This is so awesome! I'm interested in installing one of these in my home. It seems like the most economical, natural and comfortable kind of heat source that exists. Just need to figure out how to tie it in to the in-place ventilation system to spread the heat around...
Looks good . I need to get my stove installed at some point. I would recommend installing a simple damper in the stove pipe . It will help control the draft and heat loss .
Good looking install. If you don't mind my asking, why did you set the stove right on the floor instead of elevated a bit? I know if that was originally a fireplace insert it wouldn't have legs. We bought a farm where everything was heated with wood. The older gentleman who owned it elevated all of his stoves to waist level. It was great. No bending down to the floor to load, tend, or clean. I know that was a little extreme, but it sure was nice. You're not young forever.
had one unlock once and dam near burned down my building... lol i now use high temp silicone with the lock haha... love them but be aware they can unlock over time... at least with vibration.
Would it be best to screw them together, then unscrew it to clean, then put back? This is why I would rather go through the roof. Fir easier cleaning without having to dismantle it every time to clean it which I believe would cause issues long term and this exterior pipe is expensive.
Is there not a code for a specific distance above roof line the cap needs to be? Or, since this building being metal does it not matter? nvm, he answered it right around 6:30
Hello thank you so much for showing this I need to know if this works on a wooden building and it's not as big as your shop the shop I have has concrete floors but it is wooden built any information you can give me I would be greatly thankful for and thank you again because I have shingles on the top also I have All wood with LP siding on top of plywood of course any help again would be greatly appreciated😊
Great video, thanks! I am looking to do almost the same setup but probably going 15 feet higher. Does anyone have a good resource for what angles and vertical rise is acceptable for stove chimneys? I had assumed that having a 90° bend was not to code...maybe I am wrong. Also, there must be some limit on vertical rise. Any help would be appreciated.
@PatriotDIY cool......just wondering...I have a 30x40 with it just on the ceiling and I can get it comfortable with the stove but I can feel chilled air from the walls
Looks great I want one but I don’t know if I could pull this off as not very diy minded. Really want one though . I think it’s crazy money to have a proffesional in to do, perhaps there is a middle ground, someone skilled enough who I could pay.
Take the glass window out (glass cannot be within 3 ft of the stove pipe). Put Cement board (with a hole cut for the thimble in it) in the window opening. Then proceed like on the video.
Is that a buck stove? I have a 26000 being used as a fireplace insert rn. I have a Wonderluxe wood circulator for my primary wood heat. But I love my buck stove. We use it every day. And man does it push some heat. Replacement parts are expensive but definitely worth the money. Looks terrific too
I watched your video because I was a little worried about the situation you ran into clearing the roof overhang soffit. About how far does your shop roof come out from your outside wall? I'm pretty sure I'll be ok because you had to go through alot more wall material.
Whats the difference between the $299.99 "DuraPlus 6 in. Diameter Chimney Pipe, 36 in., 6DP-36CF" And the $139.99 "DuraVent DuraPlus 36 in. Triple-Wall Stainless Steel Chimney Pipe, 6DP-36SS" What's the "cf" and "ss"? Then maybe il know which I need.
I think it's just the finish but I'm not positive. My kit came with stainless, but the extra section I bought was galvanized. I havnt seen any difference other than looks, both are holding up great...the stainless is shinier....
Love your video! Just started following your channel. I’d like to ask why did you go through the wall versus the roof? My wife and I just started making UA-cam videos (Off-Grid on Friday) to chronicle our journey on developing our property. I am hoping to have similar success with my project. Any info on why you went through the wall would be great. Thank you!
we live in nw Montana. Unless you are going through the roof at the peak, the snow will wipe it off the roof when it slides down. Hence, go through the wall for us.
If you don’t mind me asking? I’m installing the same kit with a 24” pipe. It’ll put the platform out about 26”. What size and gauge slotted angle iron did you use? I’m thinking I’ll need at least 36” lengths going out to support the weight. Any suggestions?
I saw another video where the guy offset the pipe from the wall quite a bit, and he just sank two 4x4s into the ground to support the bracket. That seems like a pretty good option instead of building a big bracket and bolting it to the wall.
@@deanosmarhebert4258 I ended up building the platform with angle iron, project came out nice and looks great. Saw that video. Thought about the 4x4’s for added stability. But honestly it’s solid the way it is, so probably be overkill.
@@frankcrow4594 Nice! I'm going to be building mine through my house wall and I need to be about 18" out to clear the eave, so I'm thinking I'll do the 4x4 just to give myself something super sturdy to attach to without worrying about the vinyl siding. I won't need a lot of vertical chimney, so it isn't a ton of weight, but I want to be sure that when the T is in place that nothing is going anywhere. This'll be my third chimney install, but the first time I'm going through a wall.
Any issues with the 6 inch pipe? I have a near identical buck stove with the same rectangular 8inch connection. I ran it for a winter with 6 inch pipe (like your set-up) with no issues. im wondering if this is a good idea or not?
Great video! When you installed the Clean Out Tee through the outside wall thimble... Did you use a cauking between the Tee and the Circular hole of the thimble? (to fill the small gap) Much Thanks!!
Did your single wall just connect to the duravent double wall or did you have to get adapter for it ? I am trying to figure out how to install the non duravent single wall to the duravent double wall. Any advise would be much appreciated 👍
Good video. When going through the wall with single wall pipe did you use the adapter the kit came with? My kit the adapter is loose on the triple wall side. Just doesn't seem right or am I too paranoid?
Love your channel, awesome content! I’m about to install a wood stove in my metal building and was going to use the same kit you used. What did you use to attach the duravent kit to your single wall pipe coming off the stove?
Good point about the heat. More single wall, means more heat " escaping" into the room, which is a good thing in this case. I was gonna go thru the wall, but may switch it up now.
"I installed fireproof rockboard then put a piece of flammable wood behind it." 😆 "Then I sealed it with fireproof spray foam." 😂 Rockwood is your friend, son. Utilize it!
These are designed to go through regular house walls with 2x4s and plywood... The Pipe on the inside is single wall which is the reason for the cement board, the Pipe going through the wall is double wall with an 18in surrounding thimbal...I'm sure the wood behind the cement board is just fine!!! Thanks for your concern and "constructive" comment though🤔🤦♂️!!
Looks great however idk why these manufacturers don’t tell you that the crimp should go up with the direction of the air flow. So many videos I’ve seen with people installing the small end in the wrong direction. I’ve been doing HVAC for over 25+ years and it makes me cringe when I see people install chimney and dryer vents like this.
Certified Chimney Sweep here- male crimps should always face down so that creosote falls into the piece below and not outside the joint running down the pipe. It has nothing to do with flow of combustion gases.
I've honestly always been a little skeptical about installing through a wall, can anyone tell me how the draft works through the wall versus through the ceiling/roof? Or is it all 6 to 1 ---- half to the other.
sorry no thumbs up for you @PatriotDIY that vintage woodstove requires 48" clearance all around its body as per Code Compliance The rear cement board does not constitute a clearance reducing shield if you do not have air movement all around and when you installed the wood cross braces yuo negated the air flow vertically and put a combustible material behind the cement board which will transfer heat. this means the rear wall shield MUST be a minimum of 3" off the floor and 3" off the ceiling [north south flow]and be also mounted 1" off the wall to allow for east west airflow and the shield requires to be 18 - 20" wider than the stove on both sides READ YOUR NFPA211 section 13.6 and the chimney must be a minimum of 36" above the roof surface to be code compliant !!!!! And did you put in three screws per single wall joint and install and expansion joint???
If you watch later videos in the series you will see that I added a heat shield and a fire-rated stone wall, I also mentioned in the video that the chimney would be raised 24" higher as soon as the required parts arrived......did you say 3' off the floor?????? really??? ALSO my building is metal with a concrete floor, I'm not sure 48" clearance all the way around is quite accurate in these conditions.
@@PatriotDIY 3 INCHES off the floor for proper air movement. and 48" all around the stove for clearances to combustibles. Left/ Right Rear and Front RE the second video which shows a short rear heatshield . refer to NFPA211 section 13.6 for the proper installation methods and its great that your building is metal but what are the interior walls made of?? Looks like a combustible material and again you put a combustible material [wood] behind the cement board and blocked the vertical flow of air, which is required for cooling and 50% reduction of clearances
This fire pit is one of a few covered pits that is on the list ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxAU9pOCSV9Y5JprooHvfxTpOrt4hx8uRM of approved products for Disney Fort Wilderness. The product served its purpose well and provided excellent fires throughout the evening. We were able to open the door and do s'mores, but I had to be careful because the handle was a bit hot on occasions. Additionally, I wish they had replaced some of the standard nuts with lock nuts in some places. We lost the door handle after just a couple of days of usage. Not a deal breaker, just a recommendation. I still give it 5 stars.
I agree with JBiz180, a better more efficient install would have been straight through the roof. That stove pipe and chimney system is undersized for that stove and will not work optimally, and might smoke when you open the doors. That stove is a dinosaur and very inefficient, you will be going through a significantly more wood than if you had one that was built in the last decade. Also its too short, the chimney doesn't meet the 3-2-10 rule as described in the IRC. Nice install otherwise. I do like the bracket.
I realize the stove is old! That's why I like it! It's been working great! Also i mentioned in the video that the kit didn't come with enough chimney pipe to get the correct hight and that I would be adding another 2 feet of chimey, which I've done now! Thanks for watching!
@@PatriotDIY Haha i kinda skipped through the video. As certified chimney sweep ill tell you honestly, you actually did a great job. If diy homeowners installed as well as you did, id have to find a new job. I was just in a bad mood earlier. :)
No, Scott, your comments were spot on. The installation is good for clearances (assuming the additional triple wall is added on top). But there are slip joints to use for the single wall so you don't cut the pipe. Necking down to 6" may work, but if the stove is meant to have 8" pipe, it usually needs that volume to draw. There are ways to go straight vertical without fear of leaks. Adding the tee and bracket adds cost. Overall a good self-install.
I may be wrong here but your single wall looks to be installed backwards. Each section of pipe should be set over the preceding section, not into it when building off the stove.

How high does the pipe have to go up inside before you can do a 90 degree angle out the wall?
No clue honestly, I just went as high as I could...about 12 ft
How did u anchor stove pipe to roof going out the wall, please
So why can't you use the cheaper black stove pipe outside for the external section of your chimney?
@@divorce-split mainly because it will rust, but also it's not insulated and more likely to cause fire

how is this working out combined with the insulation? I have a monster wood stove in my 30x30 and it does very little to heat the shop
I've had it up to 76 in the shop on 32 degree nights.
How many feet off the ground to be leagal
(Gas fumes)
I am thinking about going through and existing basement window for a stove downstairs. Any suggestions about how to go about it?
Take the glass window out (glass cannot be within 3 ft of the stove pipe). Put Cement board (with a hole cut for the thimble in it) in the window opening. Then proceed like on the video.

Its been a while but Off the top of my head I think 14-16in

Where did you get the angle iron? I have to do something similar.
Lowes
Good video. When going through the wall with single wall pipe did you use the adapter the kit came with? My kit the adapter is loose on the triple wall side. Just doesn't seem right or am I too paranoid?
I used the one from the kit
Hmm. Didn't know concrete could catch on fire? What are the pavers made out of, not concrete!?
The pavers are just to raise it off the ground a little more and mostly because it looks cool
Love your channel, awesome content! I’m about to install a wood stove in my metal building and was going to use the same kit you used. What did you use to attach the duravent kit to your single wall pipe coming off the stove?
Through the roof is a way better option. Better draft more single wall which means more heat easier to clean and cheaper option.
Good point about the heat. More single wall, means more heat " escaping" into the room, which is a good thing in this case. I was gonna go thru the wall, but may switch it up now.
"I installed fireproof rockboard then put a piece of flammable wood behind it." 😆 "Then I sealed it with fireproof spray foam." 😂 Rockwood is your friend, son. Utilize it!
These are designed to go through regular house walls with 2x4s and plywood... The Pipe on the inside is single wall which is the reason for the cement board, the Pipe going through the wall is double wall with an 18in surrounding thimbal...I'm sure the wood behind the cement board is just fine!!! Thanks for your concern and "constructive" comment though🤔🤦♂️!!
you didn't show the through the wall
Looks great however idk why these manufacturers don’t tell you that the crimp should go up with the direction of the air flow. So many videos I’ve seen with people installing the small end in the wrong direction. I’ve been doing HVAC for over 25+ years and it makes me cringe when I see people install chimney and dryer vents like this.
Certified Chimney Sweep here- male crimps should always face down so that creosote falls into the piece below and not outside the joint running down the pipe. It has nothing to do with flow of combustion gases.
You dented the base tee, ooops
Yep
I've honestly always been a little skeptical about installing through a wall, can anyone tell me how the draft works through the wall versus through the ceiling/roof? Or is it all 6 to 1 ---- half to the other.
Through the roof draws better but I didn't wanna worry about water leaks
I can tell you my manufacture of stove pipe says that all horizontal installed pipe has to slope 1/4” per foot of pipe
Music too loud
Thanks for the tutorial. You might want to lose the irritating music, though. It's annoying when trying to follow your steps.
sorry no thumbs up for you
@PatriotDIY that vintage woodstove requires 48" clearance all around its body as per Code Compliance
The rear cement board does not constitute a clearance reducing shield if you do not have air movement all around
and when you installed the wood cross braces yuo negated the air flow vertically and put a combustible material behind the cement board which will transfer heat.
this means the rear wall shield MUST be a minimum of 3" off the floor and 3" off the ceiling [north south flow]and be also mounted 1" off the wall to allow for east west airflow
and the shield requires to be 18 - 20" wider than the stove on both sides READ YOUR NFPA211 section 13.6
and the chimney must be a minimum of 36" above the roof surface to be code compliant !!!!!
And did you put in three screws per single wall joint and install and expansion joint???
If you watch later videos in the series you will see that I added a heat shield and a fire-rated stone wall, I also mentioned in the video that the chimney would be raised 24" higher as soon as the required parts arrived......did you say 3' off the floor?????? really??? ALSO my building is metal with a concrete floor, I'm not sure 48" clearance all the way around is quite accurate in these conditions.
@@PatriotDIY 3 INCHES off the floor for proper air movement. and 48" all around the stove for clearances to combustibles. Left/ Right Rear and Front
RE the second video which shows a short rear heatshield . refer to NFPA211 section 13.6 for the proper installation methods
and its great that your building is metal but what are the interior walls made of?? Looks like a combustible material and again you put a combustible material [wood] behind the cement board and blocked the vertical flow of air, which is required for cooling and 50% reduction of clearances
This fire pit is one of a few covered pits that is on the list ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxAU9pOCSV9Y5JprooHvfxTpOrt4hx8uRM of approved products for Disney Fort Wilderness. The product served its purpose well and provided excellent fires throughout the evening. We were able to open the door and do s'mores, but I had to be careful because the handle was a bit hot on occasions. Additionally, I wish they had replaced some of the standard nuts with lock nuts in some places. We lost the door handle after just a couple of days of usage. Not a deal breaker, just a recommendation. I still give it 5 stars.

I agree with JBiz180, a better more efficient install would have been straight through the roof. That stove pipe and chimney system is undersized for that stove and will not work optimally, and might smoke when you open the doors. That stove is a dinosaur and very inefficient, you will be going through a significantly more wood than if you had one that was built in the last decade. Also its too short, the chimney doesn't meet the 3-2-10 rule as described in the IRC. Nice install otherwise. I do like the bracket.
I realize the stove is old! That's why I like it! It's been working great! Also i mentioned in the video that the kit didn't come with enough chimney pipe to get the correct hight and that I would be adding another 2 feet of chimey, which I've done now! Thanks for watching!
@@PatriotDIY Haha i kinda skipped through the video. As certified chimney sweep ill tell you honestly, you actually did a great job. If diy homeowners installed as well as you did, id have to find a new job. I was just in a bad mood earlier. :)
No, Scott, your comments were spot on. The installation is good for clearances (assuming the additional triple wall is added on top). But there are slip joints to use for the single wall so you don't cut the pipe. Necking down to 6" may work, but if the stove is meant to have 8" pipe, it usually needs that volume to draw. There are ways to go straight vertical without fear of leaks. Adding the tee and bracket adds cost. Overall a good self-install.
all well and good until you have to clean the pipes for that mess, you can't use a brush so you'll have to take it all apart.
I may be wrong here but your single wall looks to be installed backwards. Each section of pipe should be set over the preceding section, not into it when building off the stove.
Well your lucky. This is illegal in my county. It had to go through the roof.
