New to Me Harman Mag Stoker

Just bought a mag stoker from a buddy of mine. Installed and couldnt be happier heats my whole house.

Looks good in that setting too!!

I like the sinclair signage....
although I might be nervous with the gas pump so close to an open flame like that!

You'll love it..for sure... but you need 3. things installed to be safe.. 1. a barometer 2. a tee so you can clean out the flue piping to the chimney.. it will clogg fast if you don't clean it out.. 3. a Manometer installed permanently so you can moniter proper draft to avoid pushing toxic air back into the home.. and the manometer will show ash build up in the flue pipe restricting exhaust flow..

I believe he means a barometric damper, not a barometer.

Thanks guys I collect sinclair stuff. I have baro damper on other side of wall right as it goes into my masonary chimney. I used the extra flu I had. I do need a manometer installed we used one to dial in the stove

Looks great!

I love Dino the Dinosaur!

Nice setup, my friend says that I am burning dinosaurs, how appropriate with the Sinclair signs. I also would ditch the manual pipe damper and install a barometric, after all it is a stoker not a hand fed.

I agree! You have a stoker stove. Ditch the manual damper. Also, If I'm reading correctly, what we see in the picture, is a pipe going through the wall, THEN into a chimney on the other side of the wall. The barometric damper is also on the other side of the wall, before going into the chimney. What I'm getting at is; do you have a wall thimble (or some kind of fire prevention) where the pipe goes through the wall? It's hard to see, looking at the picture.
