Hey everyone I could really use some help!
So I installed a new Jotul F602 in my shop and have been having problems with liquid creosote dripping down the outside of the pipe above the roof line.
I installed all the pipe per the instructions, black pipe from the stove to the double wall insulated pipe that goes through the ceiling kit, and then more double wall insulated pipe all the way up to the cap. The roof pitch is 5/12 and the peak of the roof is 10 feet away so the chart said the pipe should extend 68 inches above the roof where it comes through, but as the pipe was 3ft sections I get closer to 7ft.
The creosote is condensing on the cap and dripping down the sides and onto the roof. I don't like this at all and need to find out what to do to remedy the problem. The creosote looks like a thin molasses.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Greebe
