I'm installing a new Blaze King King in a 2400 foot shop. The chimney hight will be aprox 25' high streight up.

What are the pros and cons on double wall pipe vs single wall pipe?

What is the best to use in my case?

Thank You
 
Without a doubt use double-wall connector pipe. This is what Blaze King recommends. The flue gases from the BKK will be cooler. A long run of single wall pipe will cool them down further until they start condensing in the pipe. That could lead to major creosote deposits.

Double wall is safer, and better. Though it costs more, it's worth the price!
