im having my chimney lined with a 4 inch ss liner. There will be a t at the bottom that goes into the house. The T is smooth ss. My question is how on earth do I connect the hundreds of dollars of pellet vent pro pipe that is meant to insert and twist lock onto a smoothe, round ss pipe. I'm at a complete loss. I asked around for an installer but they refuse to install hardware store "junk" they say. Please help. A video or photos would be awesome. Thanks!!!!
 
Maybe don't use that T and get the PVP twist lock T. It connects to Flex liner with this:

Other end of T connects to stove with stove adapter.
 
Richkorn may have the easiest solution if you have enough space in your chimney/thimble to make the bend without a Tee (is this an open fireplace or a 90º thimble to a freestanding stove?). Otherwise have you thought about lining with 6" instead? Could be usefull if you ever wanted to put a woodstove in (4" wouldn't work) and they make chimney adapters for 6" to PelletVent pro (this is what I had to do).
