Inserts are NOT sealed! At least they are not supposed to be. They should have a dedicated air supply sourced from large air volume. Sorry, but this is bull. So full of inaccuracies and twisted truth it's hard to believe. The airflow up the chimney depends on the ait input to your fire. Design your fire properly and the problem is not so serious as his makes out.
Why are you showing a cheap corrugated aluminum liner in reference to wood stoves? Aluminum does not meet code for solid burning fuels like wood. The material we use which is 2-ply 316-L smooth wall stainless steel costs more than the prices you are quoting?
Definitely get the liner! I would think the insulated liner is better as it keeps the exhaust gases hotter as they leave the chimney which reduces the amount of creosote that can condense from lower temperatures. We have an insulated liner and even after burning 2-3 cords of, maybe not the best wood initially (higher moisture content), we had very little if any buildup with our spring cleaning. Love your videos!
We bought a home with an Appalachian Stove insert. It works nice when we have electricity, but we lost power for three days with 10-20 degree temps( North Central LA) and I struggled to keep it working. I had a chimney sweep inspect our chimney and recommended we add a liner. She told me a price for several thousand dollars which seemed ridiculous. Is it that expensive to add a liner?
Yeah it can be expensive! Thats why Trev brought up its not them being a sneaky salesman. sure it can work without, but its more safe to add in chimney liner. Chimney liner can run to be a few thousand depending on the run.
Thanks for the video! Will the wood burning inserts work with a Class A Chimney pipe system installed to code? I currently have a vent less gas fireplace that i want to replace but no brick chimney to add a liner to.
@@emberslivingI'm in this same position. But the class A says it's a different standard than the chimney liner is... So it's not technically legal? Is that right?

Very nice! That is great to hear. We should have more fireplace content coming out around the new year. Cheers!

I have a stove with a 6" stove pipe. My chimney is a triple wall 8" stainless steel chimney. Should I put a 6" single wall liner?
Get a liner. If ur using the chimney.
Thanks for watching!
Does the liner need to be insulated?
depends on the liner you get also you will have to ask an installer
Hello just starting in the business. Thanks for your knowledge and work. Btw its anyway. You will sound smarter. 💪
Nice

class a chimney pipe is what you need

fantastic advice. What you said re burning wood and creosote buildup is 100 percent spot on.
Thanks for watching!
Great information 💞💞...
