Morso double wall flue kit with a hobbit stove
mattcyp posted a topic in Boat Building & Maintenance
I'm looking to install a fire in my narrowboat and want to use the Morso double wall flue kit for a few reasons (it looks quick to install, it fits with the recommendations of bs8511 etc) but don't want to buy a Morso stove and instead much prefer the Hobbit. I've searched on the forum and haven't found anything about mixing the two. I understand the Morso flue is designed to fit "a 5 inch morso collar", whereas the hobbit is 4 inch. Is a converter a possibility? Also, the Morso flue kit talks of male and female joints. Am I right in imaging what I've tried to picture below, with male joints facing upwards and sitting inside a female joint (on the installation instructions for the deck plate it mentions the importance of male facing upwards), with one of these joints between lower pipe and the stove, then between the two pieces of pipe, then again to the collar, and again from the collar to chimney? | | | | | | | | | | | | || || || || || || || || || || || || | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | However, when I look at the Morso stove collars (4 inch and 143mm od), I don't quite understand how they work with the flues. Any advice would be gratefully received! Also, edited to add a picture of the Morso flue that roughly shows some of the different joins.
