[QUOTE="John D, post: 1339118, member: 29803"] The heat from the chimney rises up under the roof,which is uninsulated,the temp on top is as cold as outdoors,temp under the roof is 50-60 degrees,maybe more depending on how much the OWB is firing the blower.This creates moisture forming under the roof,which drips onto the insulation,and ruins it.It also runs to the rear of mine,and drips down freezing the door shut,and drips on the blower,I'm sure that isnt any good for it.As mine builds up a layer of cresote,it is less of an issue,but it still does it.This is the only reason to insulate the chimney,to keep the heat out from under the roof.
