Proper pipe setup?

[klb25]

We are switching from an old wood cook stove to a Pleasant Hearth wsl-1800. We live off grid in Tennessee (500 sq ft cabin, open floor plan/one large room). We don't get below zero very often and usually only burn when it gets down to 35-40F.

Can someone possibly look this over please? My husband is dictating this and looking for guidance, advice, anything, before converting us from the cook stove to regular wood stove.

"We have two feet from the top of the stove to a 90 degree elbow, then two feet to the wall. Then we will use 6" triple wall snap lock adaptor to a 12" triple wall duravent pipe (through the wall) to a 6" T adaptor for the clean out. The T will be supported by a T support bracket, and approximately 14' of exterior chimney pipe, supported to the roof. Duravent chimney cap with spark arrestor."

Please let me know if that made sense and if he is on the right track or not. I've been hearing nothing but measurements and parts and at this point it's all blending together in my head and I can't keep it straight. We want to be sure it's proper before ordering the parts.

Much appreciated!

Sounds like he is on track.

Thank you very much!

A few recommentations to consider:

The best configuration will be to go straight up, through the roof. This is often less expensive due to less costly parts involved. It will be easier to clean and definitely will draft better. Regardless of choice, I strongly recommend using double-wall chimney pipe instead of the cheaper triple-wall. It is better construction. Not only will the components be less bulky, but the hole in the wall will be smaller.

Or... Is there already a hole in the wall that was for the cook stove? If so, consider using a pair of 45º elbows with an off set and eliminate the two foot horizontal run inside. That will help draft. Most importantly, it is imperative that the pass-thru the wall be done to code with the proper class A thimble if going through a wood stud framed wall. Clearances are critical to safety.

This is tremendously helpful. Thank you so much! And yes, there is already a hole in the wall from the previous cook stove. We're using your diagrams right now to do some reconfiguring. We really appreciate the help!
