I've got my 2x8 the other week, and am getting ready to set it up. Now a few questions to start with.
#1 I will be just firebricking with full size bricks. I had one person tell me that you don't need to mortar the bricks in just set them on top of each other. The reason being that the mortar will not hold to the stainless sides? I feel that there should be motar. IDEAS??????
#2 I'm going to be raising the unit on solid cement block. when I fire brick the unit should I fire brick the solid block as well??
#3 One last question for today. My evaporator came with a 10" stainlees steel stove pipe and I'm concerned and wondering about the amount of heat coming off the stove pipe, this is just single walled pipe. I have no ceiling in the room that it is in and perlins with a metal roof above the trusses. should I get a class "A" chimney, run the pipe that came with it or what??????
