That's the energy content of red oak according to Wikipedia. Although they state that only 10.4 megajoules are recoverable if burned at 70% efficiency. I believe our stove's efficiency is about 63%.
I'm currently in the process of installing the stove pipe. This first entailed purchasing a 5" to 6" adaptor, 6" stove pipe, adjustable elbows, cathedral ceiling chimney kit, triple-wall stainless steel chimney pipe, and chimney cap. So far I've installed the adaptor, 2 elbows, and about 6' of stove pipe. Next up will be going through the roof - something I'm not looking forward to.

Through the roof eh? Yikes is right. Guess the through the wall option wasn't going to work? Good luck. Looks like you're gonna get hammered with more ice and snow. You probably have more than we do here in NH. /steve/
