I can't get over how efficient these old Nashua's are. My stove top is running 700 degrees and the black pipe out the back 2 feet up is only 100 degrees. I can rest my hand on it. The pipe on my old stove ran close to the same temp as the stove. The way they circulate the smoke before it leaves the box is very efficient at trapping the heat. Makes me wonder how this company went out of business with such a good design? I used to be able to make the pipe red if I wanted, now with the Nashua its not possible. Which has the inverse problem of collecting more creosote since my chimney pipe runs much cooler now. This is my second season on this stove.
