Anyone ever use copper pipe to connect to the chimney?
No seams to leak and very tight fit at to 90.
I can't find any problems in using it except for the cost but as I am a plumber
I do have access to the pipe and joint
oh and the copper ;)
 
Copper connector shure would rob your chimney of some heat, possibly affecting draft... and it would discolor pretty bad too..

I can't imagine why it would not work.....

Of course, no soldering.....

and joints should run downhill...or else be well sealed.
