Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat! Hey Chad! I’m doing a build and looked up how to install my cubic mini. I clicked on your video and I was like wait, I KNOW THAT KID! Awesome job thanks for the help! Hope to see you on the road !!
I and a friend installed a stove in my rv. Boy did we screw this up. We will be using this video as a guide for the re-install, install. Thank you and hello from Alaska.
I just purchased a 6x10 cargo trailer that I am converting, and will be buying a Grizzly this fall. I have been trying to find a good how-to video on installing it, and this one was it! Awesome job. You explained every step, and I will be following your instructions on my install! All the best from BC , Canada!
Beautiful installation! I especially loved your detail in explaining and showing exactly the step-by-step process. Super informative and not a moment of boredom.
Do not burn soft wood, only oak, ash, beech, acacia, hornbeam. These are very dense woods! To make the fire last overnight once well lit, reduce the draft. To avoid getting up at night, synchronize with propane and thermostat.
TIMESTAMPS and affiliate links have been added to the description! I don't make money off RU-vid so using those links would be a great way to support the channel and help keep the adventure alive! Thanks for watching!
Glad it helped and that you enjoyed it Lynette! If youre going to be ordering your stove, it would be awesome if you used my affiliate link in the description. It doesn’t affect pricing or anything but it would give me a cut of the sale and really help me out since I do these videos for free!
Thanks bro for the detailed lesson, I may soon do a cargo trailer conversion and this stove may be the trick to heating it in the winters. Thanks for the info on the propane heat I didn’t even think about the condensation factor so yeah dry heat will be my way to go as well.
Your outside chimney pipe is too close to the roof of your RV. Hate to tell you that but it is a fire safety hazard. Easily fixed however by adding an extension.
Hey Chad awesome video, a perfect tutorial to install a cubic mini. One question: the company is now recommending a 7" inch hole for the 5" pipe so there is a 1" clearance around the pipe. In your video you only cut a 5" hole for the 5" pipe. This is what I would like to do as well. It is what I have planned for and it would take a lot to reconfigure. Have you had any problems with your install in the last 3 years? Is having a 5 inch hole a problem as far as you can see? Thanks man!
Hey! Great video! Just curious where you bought your pipes from. The only ones I could find are for a pellet stove, the pipes from cubic are a 4-6 week wait. Also wondering where you bought the little trim piece at the end that you put on the ceiling. Thanks!
Thank you! I have one more question: I saw that someone else asked about cutting a 5” hole instead of a 7”, would you mind elaborating on why you opted to go smaller? I’m super concerned about safety.
@@KMorgenweck8359 I’ve seen it done both ways. I’d ask cubic mini direct as I don’t want to misguide your situation. I haven’t had any problems with the 5” hole but that’s not to say someone else’s in different circumstances wouldn’t.
This video answered alot of questions for me, thank you, but, I would like to see what you used for the spark arrestor in the flu cap, and how you attached it, yes mire videos would be cool !
just bought the cub, but i have a different cap than you (don't know why?) I get straight line winds here so worried I'll get rain in the pipe. doesn't look very leakproof to me. does yours keep all the rain out, or just normal storms?
I never had an issue with Rain although I did have a solid boot cap I would throw on it when driving and only put this cap on when burning or parked for a while.
Did you secure the 5" insulated pipe 3"-5" adapter with a screw so that the insulated pipe can't slip out of place? You were able to spin the insulated pipe easily so the seam was facing the rear.
Yes the 3”-5” adapter is screwed to the 5” insulated pipe this secures it from lifting above the roof line. I still can spin the pipe but it’s slid so tightly over the 3” that it cannot spin by itself and would need to unscrew the 3-5” adapter to take it off.
Thanks for your Video. I've Always wanted a Wood-Stove, and Gal-Dangit I'm going to get one. Some people say they are Dangerous?? Oh Ya, What About Driving?? I Love The Heat, Smell & the Fantastic Vib. of a REAL FIRE. My Rig is a 7×12. The One Major Question I have is: Other Videos Proclaim that the Flu, the Tubing, Must be Removed to clean out the Soot. Can you Address this for me?? Also, I Don't plan to have the Stove as High Up as yours. Mine will be about 1-Foot, maybe 2, Off the Floor. SO, do they send Enough Pipe, or is there a Limit to How High Up the Stove must be 'off the floor'??? Sorry So Many Questions. Please Help. THX. Erik.
Hey there, was thinking about installing one of these in a similar sized cabin, but all the specs say 30" clearance above the stove, I was wondering what your clearance is to the ceiling and if you really think 30" is necessary. Thanks Chad!
It looks like you are no longer producing videos. I watched your other Cubic video and thought you did a disservice to the product. But your criticism goes to any small wood stove. You would have been more fair to the company by giving the pros and cons of both types of heat. (Why would anyone travel with a wood stove burning? Why would anyone put hot ashes into a small thin plastic waste basket?. Try tin cans with foil on top. I recycle BBQ coals this way. There are lots of uses for ash. And I always carry an axe and small sharp folding landscape saw when I camp. A wedge would come in handy too. Anyway no need for power) Neverthless I was convinced by your video that the diesel heater was preferable for a van and I thank you for that. However there were some pretty bad reviews on the particular heater you mentioned. I did find some others though. A viewer needs to be aware that in some places diesel isnt always available. One camper had to travel 150 miles to find some. It seems kerosene can be used in some of these heaters I'll have to research that. Thanks for this video too bc I want a Cubic/Grizzly for my cabin but not my truck camper. The free wood and my free labor will eventually make the hefty price worth it.
Hard to see but isn't the pipe upside down, end for end? Should the smaller end go into the stove so the any water or kreosote drains into the stove, as opposed to onto the stove? Looking at a similar installation and this will help a lot. Thanks!
Hey sexy. You didn’t cure your stove. 4 hours just raging outside which cures the paint into the metal. Otherwise it just throws stank forever. 4 years later, you’ve moved on. I’m doing a airstream and a thunderbird. Hope to drive out of here in the next two years.
