Just want to double check...
chimney is masonry with no fireplace, in fact right now it is closed off completely at lower end, so I need to go through the side of the chimney.
stove is top exit... the spigot is exactly the size of a male end of vitreous pipe, so female/female adaptor, with, I guess fire rope (if poss) and cement.
then
600mm (or more if it'll fit) pipe straight up
45 bend
straight length with door (of some length yet to be determined) which passes through inside wall of masonry chimeny
45 bend
flex liner adaptor
flex liner
pot hangar
sound ok?
as I have several 45deg bends, will I need a support bracket on the liner adaptor?
lastly, will I need to swap the second 45 bend for a 135 tee with soot door and build an access hatch outside? or would the door on the straight length be enough?
incidentally, H&S fans, yes, BC will be involved, and yes I've done a similar job before, but no bends were involved and the stove went into a fireplace.
Keep clearances to combustables as stated in regs, ie if the wall next to flue pipe is plasterboard + skim this is classed as combustable.
Does the stove have hearth exemption, if not you will need a concrete plinth to regs.
If you join pipes the top pipe must fit inside the one below with gas tight seal, fix pipes together using stainless screws.
2 x 45 is ok as long as you can get the brushes in to sweep all the chimney,short telescopic off top of stove so burner can be removed without disturbing flue, most stoves can be swept through the stove.
It's all in doc J, planningportal.gov.
cheers twinw4ll
its going straight onto the solid concrete floor with tiles on
solid masonry wall nearby, no combustibles, no plasterboard.

noted, thanks

aye
hence my question on the female/female adaptor on the stove output spigot - am I ok to do this on that one joint? or do I need to hunt out a pipe with small enough male end ?
Best go hunting, unless you want dripping condensates and the associated fire risk.
ok, will do.
ta for help
