Good morning all,

This is my first post in the wood forum as I typically roam in the pellet mill. I have recently acquired an All Nighter, "Tiny Moe" that I intend on using as supplemental heat for my basement. I have a metalbestos double wall chimney that came with the house already stubbed into the basement. Unfortunately it comes through the foundation too close to an inside wall to switch to regular single wall stove pipe right there. My question is do they make 45 degree metal bestows fittings to turn away from this inside wall? My searches seemed to turn up that these fittings are not allowed for this type of pipe. If that's the case is it possible to join a 30 and 15 degree elbow instead to achieve the same angle? At that point I would have the wall clearance to transition to either single or even double wall black stove pipe for some added clearance protection. Appreciate any thoughts and insight.

How many inches are you working with here? I'm wondering if a wall shield might be a better option?

The double wall chimney pipe comes through the basement foundation and the edge is 3 1/2" away from the Sheetrock currently. 8" OD, 6" ID.
