HOW DO I KNOW HOW MANY TWIN-WALLED FLUES I NEED?
I have just received my woodburner, it is time to get ready for winter.
This winter I will be using my new wood-burning stove, what do I need now?
How do I decide what type of tube I need?
The first thing to note! The first instruction is to exceed the ridge by 40cm and any element within 8m.
The smoke evacuation must not be disturbed.
If the roof is 15° or flat at 0°, it is advisable to exceed this by 1.20m.
THE SAFETY DISTANCES TO BE RESPECTED
I have already installed my wood stove, now I have to read the user manual, it will also tell me the power of the stove and the diameter of the Straight length to use.
This document will tell me how far I should place my stove from the wall, it is important to mention that in addition to this distance, chimney pipes also have a safety distance to respect and this is added according to the type of chimney pipe.
If I want to start with a single wall pipe to take advantage of the heat, the safety distance to any flammable element is 3 times its inner diameter. Example: an inner diameter of 150mm, the safety distance would be 45cm
When I use double wall pipe, the safety distance to any flammable element will be 8cm.
It's important to remember that I can't go through any flammable walls with single wall, and if I want to keep the single wall pipe, I have to stop 20cm before going through the wall and then switch to the double wall pipe in order to get through the wall safely.

INSTALLATION INSIDE OR OUTSIDE THE HOUSE?
Most stoves have a rear or top exit and depending on this I will decide which type of installation I want, either internal or external.

When the pipe exits from the top, the question arises: will my installation be close to a wall or in the middle of the room?
