I would bet it could see 200F or more. Be careful. I can create 250F if I crank up my Harman hand fired.

I know my 8" duct off the top of my Hyfire only gets 100-150 (inside the pipe) temp. Yours could be different, but depends on how it harnesses the heat. I measure mine about 6 Feet from teh stove, just before it goes upstairs.

I use the 6" duct option on my Magnum and yes... it gets very very hot! I have had this unit in two homes now and used the option each time. In my previous home I used actual stove pipe to plumb the air up to a brass register I cut into my hallway. I did the same at my new home but am using aluminum flexible vent pipe. When I have the stoker going full blast (I keep my home 80 or so...) the floor register is too hot to touch.

WOW, that's hot, I think most of my heat is lost to radiant heat off the sides of my stove, working on a jacket to harness more!!
