Thanks, friends.

Having lost our home to a fire we will, naturally, use only recommended new materials and a professional stove set-up. You're right, gnu; both insulated pipe is costly. We'll take care of it as soon as we can. I'm sure you all understand I won't be discussing finances here.

We are responsible for closing off the wall seams, some expanding foam insulation, and all external trim before the crew does anything more.
