Godin 3721a

Hello, I am new to this forum and coal burning. I have a question about hooking up my 3721 Godin stove which is going in a small uninsulated cabin. I have hooked up many wood stoves but this one has tabs with bolt holes in the flu making me think I need a different set up. I am also wondering if a solid piece of soapstone can be used as a hearth pad. Thanks so much in advance if anyone is familiar with Godin stoves!

I wont try to answer either question directly but those pipes have been discussed here. Heres a link to topics using a search for Godin stove pipe. Not all with be correct for your situation but some will be. search.php?keywords=godin+stove+pipe&sf=firstpost

Thanks so much for steering me in the right direction!

Your welcome. The floor question, there are codes to follow if that matters to you. Some people it doesnt. Maybe do a search for floor protection or similar if nobody else has suggestions. Its a time of the year there arent many burners on here.

I had a piece of Tennessee crab stone cut to size of floor protector when I put in a small Jotul, looks and works fine.

Never heard of that, do you have any pictures of it?

No, but a search for Crab Orchard , Tennessee stone should show it. Apparently their quarry was famous back in mid century 1950"s. Lot's of public buildings got it as hallway wainscote. That's how I got mine, a local college building from the 50's burned, a stone salvager had some and I had it cut to size.
