Can this replace a wood stove? Can I use my existing wood stove pipe?

Question:  Can I use a pellet stove to replace a wood stove?  Can existing wood stove piping be reused for pellet stove installation?

Answer:  Yes.  Many customers have replaced their wood stove with a pellet stove.  In order to reuse your existing stove pipe, you will most likely need a wood stove pipe chimney adapter, (https://www.comfortbilt.net/products/copy-of-pipe-reducer/?sku=Reduce1-8-3-1) and then enough 3” pellet vent piping to connect it to the back of the stove. (additional Clean out Tee and/or elbows may be needed depending on your installation)

Just make sure that your piping flue extends unbroken from the stove's exhaust port all the way to an exterior exhaust termination.
