Duravent pipe temps

[Champlainsailor]

Replaced my 20 yr old Vermont Castings propane stove this summer with a slightly used Stardance model. It came with duravent piping, I had to purchase fittings to go through the wall as well as the exterior wall cap. It vents up for about 2' before a 90 that exits out. It is exactly the setup the previous owner had that was installed by a dealer and conforms to venting instructions in the manual. My previous stove vented straight out the back and worked well and pipe temp was never a concern.
Finally got it all set up and the new piping is getting fairly hot, its the 6 and 5/8ths outer pipe surrounding 4" inner. Pipe temp on vertical pipe can reach 170 degrees after running for a bit, the short horizontal run gets as high as 190. Is that anything to be concerned about? Inside the wall is a 12" x 12" plywood chase about 10" long, lined with sheet metal through which the duravent goes. I even added a 8" piece of pipe around the duravent for good measure. A neighbor is a fireman and carpenter and says I did a great job and temps are not extreme, but don't think he knows much more than me. It is burning well, good flame but just seems hot to me.
What do you think?

With all due respect to your fireman neighbor, you should not do anything that is not specified in the installation manual for that appliance.

Each appliance is tested and listed with specific pipe and accessories. Anything other than this can be a fire hazard.

So all installation is per the manuals and to code. Question had to do with duravent dv piping. I've thought that double wall piping would be almost touchable on the outer wall. Again, this is new to me. Sensing that temps below 200 are probably ok. That was my question.

Just trying to be safe. My neighbor /fireman guy is like me, retired but lots of building experience. Rural area, no one else to ask. Question remains. Is 170 on verticle pipe and 190 or so on short horizontal runs on Vermont Castings Stardance propane stove to be expected ?
Thanks once more
