For obvious reasons, you will want to make sure that the stove and flue is correctly sealed before starting to use it. Any gases and smoke produced by your woodburner need to be burnt in the firebox when flammable, then make their way up your flue pipe.

You have successfully sealed your wood stove.

Use a paint brush (or whatever type of applicator works best for you) and apply an even coat all over the stove, making sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.

Helpful Tips for sealing a Wood Stove

You can find high-temperature silicone caulk or sealant at most hardware stores. Be sure to read the directions carefully before use, and follow all safety precautions. It is also a good idea to test the sealant on a small area of the stove first to make sure it does not damage the finish or make it difficult to open the door. To avoid smoke seeping into your room, you don’t want any gaps through the components of your stove system where it might get out. Equally, to avoid causing damage to your stove and get the most value from the fuel you burn, you do not want air to be able to get into your stove through such gaps and cause the appliance to operate at too high a temperature. Protect your surfaces by covering them thoroughly with plastic or cardboard and tape off anything that you don’t want to get sealant on such as the floor, walls etc… Gr8Fires on How this living room was transformed with a media wall featuring the Ezee Glow Celestial Built-In Electric Fire Sealant also prevents creosote buildup and protects against corrosion.

Ok, maybe I should explain further. I have a cat stove with a short section of pipe up from the stove to a 45, to a short section of pipe, to another 45, and another short section of pipe, and into a collar to a masonry flue. The draft is marginal for this stove, and I use little dabs of silicone to seal the joints in the areas of the pipe seam, where it doesn't seal very well. With that many joints, all those little seeps of cold air must be too much for it, as It definitely helps this stove. I've used Rutland for that, but found it to be a pain to apply, as well as a pain to remove during cleaning. I like the Permatex much better.overall it was a decent unit personally i liked the acd better due to the blower but its a solid unit. if you do go with this unit i strongly recommend NOT using the heat reclaimer the unit likes a strong draw and the reclaimer would take away from that IMHO they should never be used on an EPA reburn unit, especially a cat stove.
