voodoochile413 asked:


i have a small wood stove and want to put it in my kitchen. the chimney has an oil furnace attached to it in the basement and the gas water heater above the furnace. the wood stove will be about 8 feet above the furnace. id prefer to just vent it into the existing furnace without having to use the chimney liners.
