Replace triple wall pipe

QuestionEdit

I have a Preway energy miser fireplace, model B136 EM-IV. I need to replace the top section of the pipe due to rust on the outside galvanized skin. It is a triple wall pipe. It is 8 inch I.D. I assume it is a Preway brand but I do not know for sure. Can I use the Simpson Dura Vent 9214 for the replacement piece?

AnswerEdit

sorry to say but you might not find that pipe and you can not use a different pipe or fabricate a new one. life span on these systems is 20-30 years and then the whole thing must be replaced. you could try your local wood stove store and see if they sold it and might have that pipe. I would have a local Certified Chimney Sweep www.csia.org, (there you can look up by zip code to find one near you) take a first hand look at what you have, they should be able to help.
