I love watching how you installed your aircrete in your window. That is exactly what I want to do in my home. I have a small two story home. Nicely done. Sincerely, Regina
Darwin,have you considered using a tee at the connection into the window opening instead of an elbow,it may eliminate the need for disassembly for cleaning,just cap off the bottom side of the tee,just a thought,as usual-nice work,thanks,and GOD BLESS!
Could I ask where one could obtain a window unit like that to vent a chimney out a window? We'd like to get a 6 inch one in case we need to set up a stove in an emergency situation.
Great Job! Awesome. The exterior pipe is a little too tall, it doesn't have to be quite that tall/high above that metal roof, I'd cut that last section on top down just a bit,, tbut all in all, great job! Can you come install this in my basement? Lol, I'm serious.
Where did you get the window insert from or did you make it? I’m looking to install a stove to my basement and want to vent to out the window. If I can buy it that’d be great, or do you have a tutorial to make one?
What a great job your making of this build I love the way your wife helps out mine is the same when ever I do something without her input you can bet your life something won't be quite right and I get the old I told you so, love how everything is coming together.
Of I have a house with a ventless gas fireplace and I wanted to pull out the insert, add a chimney and covert it to wood burning, is that possible? Any idea of cost?
Good for you Man, great job well executed. I like your ideas to make the chimney pipe using aircrete. I think I will use the same idea to build a chimney I have to make that is a real S curve configuration and the cost to buy the components are flippin expensive compared to making my own. Its for a Hunt camp using a rocket Mass heater with boiler. Keep on keepin on. Thanks for the vids.
I especially like where you stand on the top of the ladder, lean over from the side, and push down (7:03). The last time I saw someone do that, he knocked out all his front teeth when he hit the ground.
I'm glad they were BOTHso lucky as to still be alive. ANY small slip of the material, work, grip, shoes or footing for the unbraced ladder and you WILL Fall. Depending on how you crash land, you can be badly injured, handicapped or killed even without all that height. I have seen broken wrists and heard of much worse happening on the jobs I have worked many years ago. For the last 15 years such a deliberate and severe safety violation you could get a summary dismissal.
I'm curious about something. Do you folks have to worry about home owners insurance when you make your own wood burning stove and riser? Someone commented on this topic underneath a different video. From what they were saying, it's different state to state.
I like the insulated window replacement. I have one concern regarding the Portland cement breaking down over time and high temperatures. Isn’t that why you used perlite and water glass?
Double wall is only necessary when you do not have adequate clearance from combustible materials as well as going through walls and ceilings… at least around here. You may want to check your local codes. Also, you may want to look into your insurance to see if they will insure your property.
Darwin, I love your vids. That said, let me ask you two things. Foamcrete is used in dome structure homes. The method used is to inflate a bag then spray the Crete onto the bag, then remove the bag. Any thoughts on how to DIY an inflatable bag? And, any thoughts on spraying foamcrete?
Great video. It would be kewl if you could discuss dimensions or regulations or say, how far away from the outer walls or above the roof line pipes should be, so we just arent watching you turn screws and guessing on our part. Cheers
nice vid. I have a similar small wood stove I'm thinking of installing into the back window of my garage. I may reach out with to your email with photos of the window. It is an old window with a broken pane. Was thinking of utilizing the broken panel for the stove pipe. Would like to pick ur brain on the job.
WOW! All that work, yet you put them together backwards!!! Watch out for a chimney fire!!! The pipes are supposed to be connected so that when the resin runs down the pipe the resin will stay on the inside of the next pipe and not run down the outside of the next pipe. You are asking for a chimney fire!!! The chimney draft always keeps the smoke on the inside of the pipe but the RESIN must run down the inside of the next pipe or you will eventually burn your place down....
I know what you mean ,of course no one mentioned the stove looks to be very close to a combustible surface...a BED ! Please reconsider this setup people!
That's the proper way, people. Think of the piping as if it were a series of funnels, in that the smaller (inner, or "male") end always points down, always goes into a larger (outer, or "female") end. Think of hot resin running down the walls of the pipe, as 54321Truth suggests... If you connect with smaller ends pointing down (iow pointing toward the stove), the larger end of the next pipe in line will "catch" the resin and send it on it's way further down, hopefully to a cleanable end trap. If you install it the other way, at each joining there is the opportunity for the resin to flow out of the joint and become even more dangerous, being no longer contained. That said, this rocket setup should in theory produce waaaay less creosote than average...but then again there's really no reason to not follow the "funnel" principle.
Will that be negated since the Aircrete completely fills the space between? From what I’ve read on other rocket mass heaters, the emission temp at the end of the pipe is generally much cooler than a wood stove or fireplace. In the range of 80-120 deg. F. In fact, some designs use an aluminum dryer vent for the stovepipe exhaust. There is generally no creosote and smoke with a good RMH. They burn cleaner than natural gas. I don’t quite understand why this design needs a 14’ stovepipe. Darwin claims it’s the part that makes the rest of it work. Perhaps running a hotter flue gas temp increases the draft but he also said it sometimes requires partial closure of the intake dampers. I’m perplexed. I would think the best of both worlds would be making the interior pipe male end down and the male end up on the exterior pipe. This would keep rain from entering the pipe and getting into the house or in the heat exchange pipes within the bench. A clean-out ‘T’ at the bottom end of the vertical pipe makes sense, too.
Why didn't U cast the block in a simple wooden mould and after demoulding install the insert inthe window opening! All that Work for a Sheet metal casing!!
Yeah... That's the only downside to filling the insulated recess with aircrete... Not as much give when you try to mate your piping up and connect them together press-fit... You had me a little scared getting up on that step ladder trying to press that section in.
Insulating a double wall chimney with aircrete... The better insulating solution would be ...Rock wool with some sodium silikate sprayed on it the keep shape Light weight Simple and less work Better insulating value (approx 3 x better than aircrete)
I really wish you and other people would Stop using Galvanized HVAC Duct for stovepipe!! There are a crap load of people that have Poisoned themselves and others doing this. The Galvanized coating burning and gassing off inside a dwelling for everyone to Inhale is going to have Negative Health effects later in life! Ask any longtime welder about it.

I am always sad when your video ends...nobody else makes them as interesting and mind blowing as you two!
Did this work? I’m thinking I seen a video that it didn’t work

hey- good idea
This is great! I want to build an aircrete chimney in my mobile home the same way. Ive watched how you made it and going to try and attempt this.
Could I ask where one could obtain a window unit like that to vent a chimney out a window? We'd like to get a 6 inch one in case we need to set up a stove in an emergency situation.
Was hoping you would get an answer
Still no reply. I would have purchased one if possible.
He made it
@@DaWafflenator27 I had realized that. I guess I was gently suggesting that I would buy another from him if he would make it.
I can make you one that's the same as in the vid, let me know if you're still interested. Same goes for the rest of you that want one.
This seems much easier then going through the wall , great idea it works for me, I like this one .🌝
I also love your Chanel thanks tO Julie for getting you started. Any one who has priced insulated stove will appreciate what you have done THANKS.
I had a idea, but yours was better. Thanks. Helpful.
great job Installing the Aircrete Chimney !!
EFFIN EH! I was wondering if this was possible and bam here it is. I love you tube.
It is so beautiful!
Yes, rock anvils are the best, when one wears out you can just move on the the next one. Love this channel. Keep the videos coming. Stay warm. :)
This is a nice project! I am likely to try this as well instead of buying an expensive Selkirk set up
Oh my gosh, I just came across your video. You're a genius. I need this in my garage!
thx for this video, great to see the install!
3:02 - I'd be Whooping it for sure! , like a custom glove!
the cover on top can get side rain....i would do the top differently.
Hi mate, did you pop air Crete between the two flue layers? Cheers
"you are weird" haha cracks me up
Where did you get the window fitting?
Awesome job, bro!
2:28 -that's tight- is really how good you are. Precision!
how come you didn't use a tee pipe on the outside and then you wouldn't have to take pipe apart every time you clean it.
suppose to use a t not an elbow for clean out
Great Job! Awesome. The exterior pipe is a little too tall, it doesn't have to be quite that tall/high above that metal roof, I'd cut that last section on top down just a bit,, tbut all in all, great job! Can you come install this in my basement? Lol, I'm serious.
Darwin I didn’t see the foam generation device on Etsy
Nice Work! You will need to explain missing rocket stove sometime. Maybe a new design for her Dirtpatcheaven.
How did you make that window insert
Really great job by a really nice guy.
Where did you get the window insert from or did you make it? I’m looking to install a stove to my basement and want to vent to out the window. If I can buy it that’d be great, or do you have a tutorial to make one?
Would love to know this as well. Would like to be prepared for outages and be able to convert my small shop in a hurry if necessary.
Not a bad idea at all but your killing ne with the sunglasses indoors ..lol just kidding
What a great job your making of this build I love the way your wife helps out mine is the same when ever I do something without her input you can bet your life something won't be quite right and I get the old I told you so, love how everything is coming together.
How do I find or have made the window insert for my wood burning stove? This is a 4 year old video so I hope someone answers
where did you get that insert from ?
Of I have a house with a ventless gas fireplace and I wanted to pull out the insert, add a chimney and covert it to wood burning, is that possible? Any idea of cost?
could I do this in a Mobile Home?
You sure it's high enough? :) hahaha
FAA may require a light on that.

Honey Do Carpenter how can I buy one of the window things?

Did you make window insert yourself or buy it? And where? Lowes or home depot?
@@NjJohannsen-uq6xe we made it
I like the insulated window replacement. I have one concern regarding the Portland cement breaking down over time and high temperatures. Isn’t that why you used perlite and water glass?
What happened to the rocket stove ? Did the princess not like it . Love to see it all together
Very nice video,
good video
How much would you charge to build me a window insert like that?
this better than cutting holes in a roof.
Do you have to have double wall piping the entire thing or just the piece the goes outside?
Double wall is only necessary when you do not have adequate clearance from combustible materials as well as going through walls and ceilings… at least around here. You may want to check your local codes. Also, you may want to look into your insurance to see if they will insure your property.

Lost 1/2 a Window. Put the connectors together backwards. Didn't instal a Clean Out "T". Installed a stove near a combustible bed. But....Good Job.

Nice hack job. Always use a tee with a clean out. Don't use a 90 like that.
That stove does not look efficient. What's the point using aircrete on this application? To keep the heat going up the chimney?
We are putting it back in. Stay tuned.
Dar Arn cool! I'm looking forward to it

What about the bed being so close to the stove. Looks like you have combustibles dangerously close to that stove.
Should have made a "T" at the bottom, MUCH easier to clean. It is Really Regulation to have a Clean out!!! Well, Next time? Good job anyway.
Looks really close to the bed could be pretty dangerous.
Hillbilly Engineering award earned!
I like better then climbing on the roof
That's actuallly homemade double wall pipe
Insulating a double wall chimney with aircrete...
The better insulating solution would be ...Rock wool with some sodium silikate sprayed on it the keep shape
Light weight
Simple and less work
Better insulating value (approx 3 x better than aircrete)
Terrible on many levels. The crimp goes down, always! The creosote needs to run toward the stove.
my stoves don't make creosote so it doesn't matter....
its so tiny
Child labor, nice!
