Help with stove pipe.

[d-dayman]

Currently getting ready to hook up my Jotul F55. I have a new insulated heavy wall liner installed in the exterior masonry chimney. Stove will be in the basement vented through the cinderblock wall thimble. I plan to use 6” single wall pipe as I am well outside of the 18 inch clearances. My questions are, do I run a 45 out of the stove and another 45 at the thimble, or should I just do one vertical run out of the stove to a 90 into the thimble? I would think the 2 45s would be be less resistance with better draft. There is already a 90 at the tee connector for the liner.

Also, what type of stove pipe are you guys using? I was thinking either HST all fuel or Ventis. I stopped in and saw some of the DuraVent stuff at Home Depot and was not particularly impressed with the quality.

Input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Two 45s are always better than a 90 unless you need to reduce draft.

I think Home Depot sells DuraVent's DuraPlus chimney pipe. It's their triple wall value pipe. Their DuraTech product is much better. I'm not a fan of HST's design. I like the insulation end to be enclosed and not exposed.

I’m looking at the single wall stuff. Already have an insulated liner in the masonry chimney
