I am looking to install a stove in my house and I only have one room where it makes sense to put it. I would like to go through the wall then up several feet once outside. However, the vent pipe would come through the wall about half-way between the left edge of my house and the oil fill pipes (see the picture). I am wondering if being near the oil fill pipe is a problem in case the oil guy spilled etc.

I would rather go up once outside purely for aesthetics on the inside, but I will certainly go up then out if that's the safer route.

Any thoughts??

I would go out then up, I would not worry too much about the oil man, you won't be seeing much of him!
