I run 800 degree stack temps but at the rate of flow my blowers use im not sure if it would get too hot. I also thought if not go all the way through the roof with the outer pipe i could add or subtract pipe lengths to adjust the temp. I wouldnt think i would want to run temps of more that 150 degrees but i think any would help. Thanks Jeff
