I am working on a system for my RMH to be built in my place. I have a sketch of the design, but would like some input the 6" horizontal piping is a little over 40' and the chimney is approximately 31', but I have the horizontal pipe slightly angled up in the mass to enhance draw. I would like to know what others think about this design. I also have an infeed which is a "J" design, but also has a cleanout or priming access which is located at the bottom of the J with a damper to control flow until all is warmed up. Please review and respond .

Thanks,
RockinOn

Thanks Cris,

I should be using some larger tubing for the riser, which I do have, but what about the insulation of the riser, is it necessary with this material or will it extend the life if I do insulate it ?

Hello,

Am new to the forum, I have a few questions on my RMH design and materials I want to use, I have some 6" x 6" x 1/2" wall SS square tubing, I would like to know why this wouldn't work for the "Main" burn tubes for the Rocket portion of the stove including the upright exhaust into the Manifold, which will be a SS tank as well ?
