While the Duratech system is almost perfect for our ovens, I suspect we are using the the product for an application the engineers didn't anticipate.

The Duratech website lists designed applications: Wood stoves, fireplaces, furnaces, boilers, stoves, ranges, water heaters, or other appliances fueled by wood, coal, oil or gas.

With the exception of "other appliances" the applications listed wouldn't need to worry about a little stainless steel expansion.

I'm curious now... I'll pull my Duratech booklet and see if it mentions expansion.
