Tipi Stove Pipe Length

[austinphps]

My dad picked up a SO 8 man tipi and a 4dog stove for our elk hunt this year. From the ground to the top of the stove pipe is 9'8", but SO recommends 9.5' of stove pipe. Height of the tipi is 8'6" I think. So question being, is 1' of stove pipe sticking out of the top too little or should it be fine? Should we add another section of pipe to get the recommended height?

How tall is the stove?

Not exactly sure, maybe a 1' tall? but with it all set up and stove pipe on, it's 9'8" from the ground to the top of the pipe.

A couple feet of pipe above the tipi will help prevent ember holes. Also give some room for the stove to sink a little if you are on snow.

We are expecting snow as it will be a mid November hunt. Thanks Montana, i think it would be wise to get another section of pipe.
