I am the NY dealer for Thor and in answer to your question, they make up to a 14" flue.

I am using 4 gal buckets and I have not had any pull when full. I tried some of the new leader check ball spouts without the check balls and they won't work due to the right angle design. The smart...
On our buckets I use CDL smartspouts. I have a good number of metal hooks from the metal spouts. I put a 5/16 washer on, then the hook before driving the spout. This setup seems to be working good...

I ran mine without any stack last year and didn't notice any problems. Like he said adding some would alleviate some steam in the sugar house though. My flue pan is 4x8.
I used a Craftsman 19.2 1/2" last year after using it several years of construction. It was a nine year old drill that had seen plenty of use working for 2 construction companies plus side work here...
I MYSELF WOULD LOVE SOME OF THOSE TREES! Down here it takes 40 gals of sap on the average to make a gallon of syrup.
Spud,
Sorry for the misunderstanding on what I wrote. It was my father's best friend who passed not my father. But, thank you. Dad is still here to help, what he can. He is now 77 and slowing...
My name is Keith and I am engaged to a very loving and supportive Judy. I grew up around maple, as my father was a producer when I was young. I was fortunate enough to gain some more knowledge...
