I am putting a barrel stove in my workshop (NE Georgia -- often chilly in the winter). It has a 6" flue. I plan to use 6" single-wall pipe, straight up (about 9') to penetrate through metal roof panel, then another several feet to a chimney cap above roof top.
I am thinking about flashing the roof penetration with a red silicone boot flashing, such as this.
The spec sheet for the flashing says that it tolerates temperatures as high as 500 degrees intermittent, and 437 degrees continuous.
Do you think that the exterior of a 6" chimney pipe about 10 feet from a barrel-stove flue outlet would be likely to exceed these limits? I will be burning scrap wood, such as cut-offs from making wood bowls, furniture, cabinets, etc., and other firewood.
Thanks.
