Hope I'm doing this post right.

I have an 11 year old Century 244e wood stove. Was wondering the longevity of the flue pipes. How long should I expect the flue to last. I used the thin walled black 6" Menard's pipe up to my ceiling. Then used a thicker double-walled stainless steel (I think) Menard's pipe through the attic and roof. Just wonder for safety sake. Don't want the pipe disintegrating on me... Thanks
 
If the chimney pipe is from Menards it probably is Selkirk? It should last 30 yrs. if maintained well without any chimney fires.
