Pocono install and baro question.

I just got my pocono up and running. Was running on a power vent last year. I Just installed a chimney this year, and have finished the install. Take a look and let me know any comments or questions. The stove is in a finished basement. Chimney is on opposite side of wall in the garage. I used a thimble kit and a piece of double wall insulated chimney pipe to go through the wall. I have the baro in the garage. Was wondering if this location is OK? Read on here that the baro should be in the same room as the stove. Would a better location for the baro be in the vertical pipe coming out of the stove? I Did the all the work myself including the chimney and wanted to make sure everything was right. Its pretty warm today, stove is at idle, manometer reads .02, baro is closed most of the time.Let me know what you guys think. Attached are some pics for reference.

Looks like a good install and don't see why it wouldn't work as it. Just keep an eye on your draft. But, sounds like it's working good. .02 is good at idle.

YOu might be able to put TEE in right above the stove before the elbow for the Baro, but i don't see why it would not work the way you have it.

The baro should be in the same room especially with a door between the two rooms . This can cause issues if the pressure drops in the other room ,it can work like a chimney allowing co to enter the room with the baro . I would suggest a T with a baro just above the stove so they are in the same room . Otherwise it looks great . That sure is a nice looking stove.

I saw a pic of a setup where instead of an elbow at the stove they used a "T" & put the baro facing the front of the stove.

looks like you have enough room for a TEE right off the stove before the elbow, if not, just cut it down a bit to make it work. You could always put it off the side or back, then you wouldn't see it as much.

Burn it as is. Just clean the horizontal section
after the burning season.

If you run it the way it is, I would remove the door.

I think the baro should be in the same room, or remove the door. Keep an eye on ash build up in the horizontal pipe. CO detector?

I wanted to thank everyone for all the good advice. I changed the configuration of the pipes. Please see new pic and let me know if this is better. I really appreciate all the input.

One is in the same room as the stove, one in the kitchen outside the stairway to the basement , and one in the bedroom. I hope thats enough. Will definately watch the fly ash in the horizontal pipe. Thanks.

Isn't your manometer line in the way of your hopper lid?
I ran mine out the back of the pipe like you but turned down and went between the hopper and the stove.
If you look close you can see my copper line.

Gambler> Not really. I usually just lift it a little, and slide it back enough to dump the coal in. Can still take the lid off if need be. Wasn't sure how to run it, but it doesnt seem to be in the way(yet lol). Do have pics anywhere how you ran yours??

Gambler> sorry just saw the pic of your stove. I didnt think I had enough room to bend it down before the hopper. Its pretty tight. I will have to look at it again and see if that is possible. Good suggestion, Thanks.

The hole in my flue pipe is not directly to the back but offset slightly to the right. You may need to adjust your pipe.
Edit: Also I don't have a nut on my copper tube. I just have the tube going into the pipe.

That looks much safer . I am glad you changed it . Thanks ,Dave
