Answer:

Each device needs it’s own flue….the best way to do this- if the chimney is large enough- would be to drop two pipes down- one for the wood and one for the oil.Some states- including Mass- have an exception to this rule- and do allow multiple units into one chimney if certain guidelines are followed.
