I think most pellet stove manuals should address this situation. Chances are that it's best to use it - BUT, to line it with a smaller diameter flex pipe. This is quite easy to do and makes certain that the stove operates better. Pellet stoves are very sensitive to flue diameter and back pressure, etc.
