Blue 5 inch Single Wall Stove Pipe

Frequently asked questions about Stove Pipe

1. How do I determine what size stove pipe I need?
2. What's the difference between single wall and double wall stove pipe?
3. Should stove pipe be installed with the male end up or down?

Please note: For safety considerations and ease of installation follow these guidelines.
1. Never mix and match gauges of stove pipe. Single wall and double wall pipe cannot be mixed in an installation.
2. Use a stove pipe reducer or increaser if you are working with different sizes of pipe.
3. Buy all of the pipe you need from one brand. The connection will most likely differ from Brand X to Brand Y.
4. While all of the stove pipe we sell will fit together tightly a very secure connection can be obtained by using 3 screws per connection. Screws also make the entire assembly stronger.
5. New stove pipe may smoke a little and emit an odor when first used. This is normal and nothing to be concerned about. It is simply the paint on the pipe curing a bit. If necessary open a window or door to allow the smoke and fumes to escape.
