How can we block off an unused wood stove flue?

Feb 04, 2013 2 Replies

Our house was built with a chimney flue for a wood stove in the finished basement. However, there's never been a wood stove installed, so there's just this 7 7/8" ID flue pumping cold air into the basement. I'm getting sick of stuffing old clothes in it. I've searched for flue caps and other terms but I haven't found anything for this purpose.



Any ideas??



Thanks, John
