Anyway need to have stove installed into an existing brick, clay lined fireplace.
Getting estimates for installation now by stove/chimney companies.

Question to the Forum...... Does the stove pipe chimney liner need to be 'stainless' steel? I thought pellet stove venting did not require this, but only needed to be aluminum or galvanized material?

The liner will be roughly 25-30' from fireplace hearth, up through damper, to the top of chimney.
If I have to install 'stainless' steel it will be costly compared to aluminum type.

Your comments are much appreciated !

Bigdog...do yourself a favor and head over to hearth.com and join the forum called the Pellet Mill. Tremendous resources there. I have been a member for 5 years and have owned 2 Harman Stoves over the course of 18 years.
