Pellet Stove Magic Heat

21 years ago

Wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to use a magic heat unit on a pellet stove ? ( these are the units that install in the stove pipe and help remove the wasted heat that is going out the pipe )I know of one person who has one installed and swears by it, but that doesn't mean its right ( OR SAFE ) if it is ok to do is there anyone who make is. The ones on the market that I've seen are for a 6 or 8" pipe.

AAAKKKK! NO!!
Those things should only be used on non-EPA certified WOODSTOVES.

Sounds like a bad idea. If your pellet stove can't pull the heat out itself - an add-on unit won't do much better. Not only that, it's just another area within your exhaust venting system to get clogged up with ash.

No, no and no. These are not for pellet stoves. It would be a waste of money, invite leakage, prolly violate your warranty as well. Bad bad idea.
