Robert walks you trough installing a Volgalzang Colonial Wood Burning Stove Insert.
Do you have an inefficient wood burning fireplace? Does your current fireplace smoke?
You might want to consider installing a wood burning fireplace insert. This is an easy and cost-effective way to improve the efficiency of your current fireplace.
Wood burning inserts burn the fuel much more effectively and produce more heat into the room than a standard masonry fireplace, and most have fans to project even more of that heat into the room.
A wood burning fireplace insert is an easy, attractive way to breathe new life into your existing masonry fireplace and transform it into an efficient, warm, entertaining fireplace. Wood Burning fireplace inserts are special types of wood stoves and are specifically designed to fit into the firebox of your existing fireplace where the logs and grate would normally go. This allows the fireplace insert to use the existing fireplace flue, with a liner added, to vent smoke and other by-products of combustion.
So check out the video and get moving on that next money saving home improvement project.

This fire pit is one of a few covered pits that is on the list kzfaq.infoUgkxAU9pOCSV9Y5JprooHvfxTpOrt4hx8uRM 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.

Very nice video! Question, I have a wood burning fireplace with variable speed fan that I love and works really well but I would like to have a wood burner as a actual heat source besides my furnace. My question is I have been told that most likely a insert wouldn't work with a factory built fireplace. I haven't actually had a company come out yet but it seems I see a lot of these being installed on here with the same type of fireplace. I'm in Minnesota so we have plenty of days needing heat lol.

Not in a bad way, but I could just tell in my situation, I rather pay a professional, but now I understand why I am and that it was worth the cost. Plus I like to know how my stove works so seeing how the flue is installed really helped. Thanks!

@@JDKline I am extremely happy! Even if it didn't save me a dime, I have decided I'll always have a stove in my house. The ambiance and toasty warmth is irreplaceable. But beyond that, I actually saved a ton of my heating bill this year, despite it being a much brutal winter. Just burning on weekends (3 days a week) I saved about $500 on heat this year. Doesn't sound like much but again, only part of the week, and I also relied on my oil heat for the remainder, it was colder, I traveled a lot (used oil on tstat), and oil went up in price. Good luck sir

If I do that (dumb question I know) I would not need to use the faceplate at all (as long as I meet the clearance requirements?

The original fireplace is a Masonry Fireplace with a Full Masonry Chimney incorporating a Terra Cotta Flue Liner; it was built with a Heat Form steel firebox that was "bricked in" to the structure when originally constructed. These steel Heat Form fireboxes were built by Heatilator years ago which often causes confusion. Since the 1970's, Heatilator is known for the Metal Zero Clearance/Prefab/Builder Box Fireplaces that are widely used in the building industry today. So, to answer your question, the fireplace in this video is a Masonry Fireplace, NOT a Prefab/Zero Clearance Fireplace. www.hearth.com/talk/wiki/heatform/

Wonderful step by step video...Feel pretty good about installing ours now....Quick question please: does the liner come wrapped like yours was or is that an extra step we will need to do & with what material please? Also, we too live in a log home, with a fireplace that has a cracked ceramic flue, so thinking this is the best way to address it, as well as our high heating bills. Thank you very much. Kerrie (Please confirm it's okay to just put the liner right down into the ceramic flu that is cracked).

The insulation you see wrapped on the liner during installation is done before you feed it down your chimney. It doesn't come pre-wrapped, and is also purchased separately.

If I call a company to install an insert I would expect him to take the damper down and do a total install from start to finish that seems to be your job obviously the fireplace needs to be cleaned out but when you ask a customer to take out the damper or leave it that’s up to you

I have a home built in 2006 with a pre-fab fireplace that I want to change out to a stove like you were showing. My fireplace has a double wall insulated "liner" from the fireplace to the roof. My question to you is why is it necessary to install a liner (inside the current liner)? Why can't a custom reducer be fabricated and put on the existing liner and connect the stove to the type liner you are demonstrating?
@NorthlineExpress
@NorthlineExpress 2 жыл бұрын
It truly depends on the reduction. If you are going from a 8" to 3" for example, you are better off getting the exact size than reducing. If you are going from 8" to 6" you could go that route.

Wondering the same thing? I've seen guys put up durock or cement board, I've heard of folks putting Roxul insulation in there but if you removed the damper or left it open that's a pretty big gap of space and I'd assume a lot of heat loss going right up the old chimney area

That Roxul is suppose to be pretty fireproof and what I've seen people use, but I wondered if there is some fireproof kit or something to help seal up that space. I also wonder about the space on the sides of the liner at the the top of the chimney do you seal those spaces up as well up top? I would think cold air would come down into the old chimney.

Depends on the stove brand and size and whether or not you're doing the install or paying a company to do it. It can range from around $2,000 on the low end if you do the install yourself all the way up to around $7,000 for a very high end stove and a professional installation. I installed my own and the total cost was $4,300 for an Enviro Boston 1700 insert.

@NorthlineExpress
@NorthlineExpress 2 жыл бұрын
The easiest time to install a unit is when the weather is warmer. Being on a roof in the middle of a Michigan winter with ice & wind isn't exactly the prime time for installation. Best way to show you all how to install is during warmer months, and you have to cure the stove with the first fire. Even if it's 85, this is part of the process during a proper installation. Hope that helps!

This install would never pass inspection in Massachusetts. The flue pipe needs to be 36" above the highest part of the roof within 10 feet for proper Draft. Not mention fire safety flue was mighty close to the peak of the roof. It's a miracle that roof never caught on fire. 🔥🔥

Yeah so don’t screw in to the terra cotta liner ever man I mean ever ever never ever!, got it man. Stop this horrible practice dude! Stop! One thing that may not be obvious. It looks like you capped the whole chimney from the looks of all the new mortar on top. It looks really new and super flat with zero slope to help water..moisture to run off of the top of the chimney, looks like it will all settle for as long as moisture wants to...creating what moisture creates and does best... bad things to your chimney and home. Any how when you were doing what you did to the top outside of the chimney maybe just maybe could have mortared in some bricks around the chimney out terra cotta. That would make the mounting surface bigger for the top plate. It also would give you the bricks to drill into for mounting the top plate and not the terra cotta. Hope that makes sense
