Hi im new to wood stoves and I picked a older stove up for 20 bucks that I had seen on the side of a house. I'm going to be putting the stove in my pole barn. My biggest question is how do I go about piping the chimney out side I see there are diffrent ways I can do it, and what type of piping will I need and all that jazz thanks for the help
 
Thanks . The barn is 25x32x15 high. Poured concrete floor. I was looking at possibly coming off of the stove 90ing out side then 90ing up once I was out of the barn a taking it up past the peak of the barn
 
That is usually much more expensive than going up straight and out the roof, especially for the long run of class A an exterior chimney will take. Remember the 10-3-2 rule. for the chimney height above the roof.

Thanks for the info, I was looking at a chimney kit from tractor supply would u use there products or would u look else where?

I am not familiar with what they sell. What would probably work best is a cathedral ceiling support box, but this depends on the roof construction.

Ideally you want to go straight up through the roof. Barns however create a unique situation. The connector pipe is going to be tall, perhaps much taller than the chimney pipe outside. That is going to cool down flue gases, a lot which can increase creosote production. For this reason it's best to use double-wall connector inside the barn.
