placing wood burning stove using the rear flue

6/7/2016

These videos were shot for Ishan from Darjeeling to have a look at how I had placed my stove with a rear flue. Please note that that the flue pipe dia is the same as that of the 'spigot' (round cast iron ring on the flue exit of the stove - if you can't see it then it's inside the firebox, wrapped safely), while the flue has a 30-40 mm long lessor diameter slide into the stove. I've never used a fire cement or welded the two and have never had a problem with smoke or leaks, However, I share my experience with the CAVEAT that you are responsible for your safety, as with all fire products. So please follow the instructions carefully and look for wiser instructions on youtube.

Great post and a helpful look at how a rear flue setup can work when installed carefully and with safety in mind. Proper sizing, fit, and alignment of the flue connection are key factors in preventing smoke leaks and maintaining efficient draft, and it is always smart to remind readers to follow manufacturer guidelines and prioritize safety.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Purchased a beautiful Graphite 5 stove from Mr. Chopra last winter. The stove was professionally packed and reached me all the way overland in Leh, Ladakh. Communication, advise and price were all excellent with this company. I can heartily recommend anyone to buy a wood stove from them. Henk Thoma Leh, Ladakh

We bought a Pony 12 KW several years ago and it is great! It is installed in our house in Chail and gives great heat in winter. It is easy to use and maintain. Installation did not need any changes to the already constructed house and we got great help from the company as well. I highly recommend installing one as it brings a cosy atmosphere and heats up your room at the same time.
