stack length for smoker question

bradyw79 · Dec 10, 2014

I just got a 250 gal propane tank gunna do reverse flow and mount on jet ski trailer but after running the numbers thru feldons calc I am wondering about the length needed for the stack 43 inches or could a guy split it up and do 2 -- 22 inch stacks instead? would it create the same draw? (seems to me that the longer the stack the stronger the draw is) any thoughts?? thank you!!

A great source of information.

Yes, if for examle, Feldon suggests a 6 inch x 44 single stack. you get the same volume with 2@ 6 inch x 22 stacks. I would oversize a little and maybe go with 2@ 24 inches.

Also remember its the total length of the stack, so if you have 14 inches going down inside the tank than you only need 30 above it.

If you go bigger diameter it can be shorter. The one I'm about to build had a 6 inch 4 feet long. I upped it to 8 and it reduced the length in half.
