Default Don't skimp on installation.

I'll give Dave a call and see what he says. I'll probably take the plate off and bring it. A lot easier than taking the whole stove....LOL

Hmmm I wonder if I can call into work and tell them I broke my leg....

Another problem i now have is that my original stove is not a double stove pipe. The one in my house uses room air for combustion. Not like the newer ones that use outside air. I also took a good look at how it goes through the wall and there is very little clearance inside the wall and insulation. I need to take care of that I guess after 5 years....So I need to figure out how the vent the new stove. Man, I am glad I didn't figure this all out when it was warm out....
Do not compromise on safety, and have the stove hooked up by a licensed gas installer. Saving money is one thing, compromising on safety is a whole different issue, and one I would not want you to do, my friend.
