Is it possible to vent a gas furnace through an existing wood stove chimney pipe?

Filed Under wood stoves 

brandyd7 asked:


I am trying to put a used furnace in my garage and already have a wood stove as an existing heat source in there.
If it is possible, will I also still be able to continue using the existing wood stove?

      Yes. If it’s less than 8 inch diameter I might not operate both at the same though . . .
