If you know you are going to be drilling through thin metal with a hole saw, try this first. Get a scrap piece of wood larger than your hole. Maybe 3/4" thick. Plywood or solid, does not matter. Drill a hole. Remove the slug from the hole saw. Stick a pencil through the center hole in the slug and metal and use some drywall screws and attach to the siding or metal. Remove pencil. Drill your hole. The drill bit is really not necessary now and the slug is the exact inside diameter of the saw so no walking.

Nice tip

Code for venting anything is typically 3 feet off the ground. If you get drifting snow its going to block that vent that close to the ground.

We so seldom get snows like that where I live it won’t be much of an issue, but you’re right

You could just have drilled from the out side in

It is bad advice to run a pellet stove straight out because if the electricity goes out and the pellet stove goes out, smoke will enter through the stove. If you have at least a three or 4 foot rise on the outside it eliminates that so a rise is necessary.

Any horizontal run should have 1/4 inch upward slope per foot, not angled downward.

You Need a horizontal rise outside about 3ft bud at least lol

Too damn much math. Go outside, between ribs, and drill the damn hole to the inside...

Should never have a drop horizontally through the wall. It should be level if not rise slightly. Should also have a minimum vertical rise of at least 3 ft preferably 5 ft to assist in venting before terminating vent. No cleanout??

Nope, horizontal vent is all you need.

Nice to see ,but please drill more horizontal then you did . And a lot higher output .

Nice and level?

What kind of pellet stove did you use? Love the simple venting you did, perfect for a shop

Hello, if your getting a smoke smell in your house after first day of firing the stove up, what would your steps be to see where its coming from?

@ChanyataFarm

The first thing I would try is right at initial start up of the stove, while the fire is still burning smokey, turn off the lights and shine a flashlight on all of your pipe joints and see if you see any smoke infiltration at the joints

Do the same with the gasket around the door to make sure it isn’t leaking there either

What are you gonna do if you need to take apart the ventilation pipe? You used silicone wouldn't that make it hard to pull apart

Just got this same stove and wanna do the straight out the wall set up like you did have you had any issues with the way you set it up? Thanks!

We have had no issues, it works like a champ. *Disclaimer- this is NOT the manufacturer’s recommended installation

Not far enough from the garage outside

Love you shop. I find the outside vent is a bit low. Here in Ontario Canada the higher the vent the better to prevent snow blockage. Liked the video.

Where is your clean out T?

@@hubster4477 You need a minimum 3 foot run up in case the power goes out. Without that run your house will fill with smoke if the power fails while the stove is running. Would not be fun. A horizontal termination like that will only work if the power doesn't fail.
