[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1451634, member: 3828"] Made a change to my smokestack today. The stock chimney pipe is, I believe, 5” schedule 10 steel pipe. I would love to get my hands on about 18” of that and weld a permanent chimney extension on. But that pipe is pretty expensive and hard to get in small quantities. Instead what I did was buy a 2’ length of 5” diameter galvanized duct. I slipped the 2’ length onto the stock chimney about 6”. The ID of the chimney pipe is about 5.25”, so the duct pipe fit easily. I put a hose clamp around the duct pipe so it wouldn’t slip down any further, then I cut off the 6” stove pipe that I had been using as an extension and slid that over the duct pipe. I filled the space between the 5” and 6” pipes with fiberglass insulation and fitted a 6” duct transition piece as a spacer to keep them concentric. I think with the insulated pipe I’ll get plenty of draft with the 16” extension and 5” diameter. Seems to be working ok. Tested the new configuration while I smoked a beer can chicken for dinner.
