Rutland Cartridge Furnace cement worked a charm properly sealing a fairly new Jotul F100 wood stove that unfortunately was not properly assembled by the folks that installed this wood stove along with a new stainless steel flex liner in our chimney. I had discovered some smoke leaking around the rear of the stove and found it coming from around the connection of the collar to the pipe. The easiest fix for me was to try this furnace cement. I applied it around the seams and let it dry per instructions and then cured it with low heat fire followed by a hotter fire. Right off the bat, we ( the family ) noticed the air during the fire was much cleaner, we could smell no smoke what so ever, and of course I could no longer see smoke coming from the rear of the stove as before.. I believe we had accepted the minor smoke smell as just common with the wood stove. I should have researched this sooner, however all is fine now thanks to this wonderful product. After curing it has formed a nice solid dark gray bond around the joints and looks to be easily removed if necessary.Highly recommend this product.
