Are the ones in the house lined with a ss liner all the way to the top or inside a clay flue. Apparently code nowadays for a stove a ss liner has to go all the way up.

It helps when you have alert neighbors.

Although it wasn't a problem, one of our neighbors hadn't had their furnace serviced a few years back, and when it fired up for the first time that season it billowed black smoke as if there were a fire inside.

We called 911 even though there were flames visible, mainly because I've never seen that kind of smoke coming from an oil burner before.

Once the local FD showed up they belayed our fears and explained what was the likely cause.

Felt foolish for calling for what was a trivial event, but they agreed that if it was a fire and we did nothing it could have been much worse.

KUDOS for you and you wife for being a good neighbor!

I am a legend in my own mind!

All 3 stoves have SS liner inside a clay flue and the SS liner stick up about 1' out of the flue.

No boat, back in the suds.

That's good!!

I haven't been able to use my stove in the basement for a couple years. I had the stove and short liner just going to the beginning of the clay flue. Trying to get a SS liner to the top but that one flue takes a couple funny angles and the guys haven't been able to snake one down yet. Bums me out.

Yes, I understand. I am lucky that all my clay liners were straight.
