bought a wood buring stove, need help installing it!!!!

Reason I ask is because I have the double wall pipe (heat-n-glo SL pipe) and I actually had a layer of ice in between the walls of the pipe last year up on the top of the pipe. On warm days or when you fired up the fireplace, it would melt and the water would run down in the walls of the pipe onto the fireplace. Not cool! :mad:
Anyway, I am not sure if this was from all the condensation going up the pipe (put it in our new house while they were sheetrocking upstairs) or if it is a characteristic of the metal pipes... Maybe the triplewall is better?

there are 2 pipes. one is a fiberglass filled and i'am not sure what the other one is. but one gets wet like you are reffering too.

try sealing that gap up top where the seperation between the walls is exposed with high heat silicone...

?????
My 2 pipes just have an air gap between them, no fiberglass anywhere, must be thinking of a different pipe?

M8, which gap are you referring to seal up with silicone?
 
is your fire place propane...???...is your pipes seperated with air gap because your
intake air(combustion)is via the pipe ..exhaust the center which preheats the incoming..if not then should not be an air gap and that is what i was suggesting filling at very end of pipe on roof..but the gap may be combustion path..and if it is you may need to wrap pipe abit...or shorten it closer to roof abit or is rain/storm collar adequate
