    • How does the 6" flue pipe install on the fireplace?
    • The back of the fireplace insert has an angled back vent. You install a chimney liner to the vent opening and up through your fireplace chimney. More detailed instructions can be found by clicking the Additional Information tab and then on the Installation Instructions. I have included the link here for your convenience; Installation Instructions ...Robert

    • My husband and I would love to purchase but have no idea who to call for installation for the chimney liner. Any suggestions? Thanks
    • If you are handy around the home you can attempt it yourself. If not then a heating & cooling company might do the job or a general handyman.

    • The Stainless Steel Adapter that attaches the flexible stainless liner to the unit where is that on your website.....it states in the instructions this item does not come with the unit.....look on your install link and you will see which items are not included.....I can't seem to find it.
    • James, Yes, you are correct that the adapter does not come with the insert because every installation is different. We have a couple options for purchasing the adapter; you can either purchase the adapter alone at http://www.northlineexpress.com/6-duraflexss-connector-6dfs-fc-6dfs-fc.html or you can purchase a kit which includes everything you will need to install your new insert in your home at http://www.northlineexpress.com/chimney/chimney-pipe-stove-pipe/chimney-liner/6-inch-chimney-liner/6-inch-duraflex-stainless-steel-chimney-liner.html we have many options to choose from.

    • So will this heat a second floor too?
    • Generally yes but it depends on the layout of your home and whether the heated air can travel to the second floor easily. Heat will naturally rise and you can help that happen even faster by putting in floor vents or by turning on the blower if you have a forced air furnace. We have some nice floor vents here....Robert

    • I live in Minnesota and was hoping to better utilize my fireplace with something like this to provide additional heat for my house and try to lower my natural gas bills in the winter. My furnace is rated at 60,000 Btu/hr input and my house is a basement and upstairs with a total of 1900 square feet. Can any input be provided as to how well something like this could heat my house, meaning have others in a colder climate stated they have had some savings on their gas bills? My house is insulated fairly well and not drafty if that helps.

      Thanks,
    • I have used a fireplace insert to heat my previous home which was a poorly insulated 1600 sq. ft. home with bad windows. My home was a ranch which isn't ideal since the home is long versus more vertical. If the fireplace in your home is on the main floor don't expect to heat the basement. If your fireplace is in the basement then you could possibly heat the whole home or at a minimum in either situation you could set your furnace back and use the fireplace insert for the main heat source. My daughter lives in Michigan (similar climate) and heats her entire home with a freestanding wood stove. The home is a 2 story 2300 sq. ft. home with good windows, insulated well, and an open floor plan. All these factors weigh in when trying to figure how well a fireplace insert or wood stove will heat. The bottom line is that fireplace inserts have been used for more than 30 years to heat homes. Some heat the entire home while other homes may be more difficult to heat and even then you'll see a dramatic reduction in heating costs. They are a good investment....Robert
