I am trying to change up my inside chimney pipe. Last year I simply had two 45's and a horizontal run in between them. But to clean it I always had to lose the furnace away from the pipe. I really didn't like doing that. This year I wanted to add a clean out T to the bottom. But they all seem so expensive. $60 and up for single wall clean out t. And that doesn't include the cap!? So my question is. Do I have to go with the duravent duravent brand like my current set up is. Or is there a standard for stove pipe and I can buy any generic stove pipe brand and they all still connect together?

There are certainly differences between brands but not so different as to be incompatible. I would be most concerned with adding random chunks from different brands in the middle. If you replace all of the single wall it should be fine.
