July 14, 20215 yr Hello, I am looking to install a 5kW stove (Purefire Curve), with the intial plan to use the top outlet for the flue. Plans may now be changing and we are possibly using the rear outlet. Instead of a 90' I would like to use a 45' coupled to a 135'Tee through the wall. (I will be using Twin wall right from the stove.) In theory, I cannot see any issues and would like to think that the BC wouldn't have a problem signing it off, but, has anybody had any issue using this kind of setup or done something similar? Cheers James
July 14, 20215 yr Why use a T? if looking to feed two appliances into 1 flue its not as straightforward as a drain etc.
July 14, 20215 yr Not sure I follow, can you draw a picture. Are you using the tee as a way of cleaning the flue ?
July 14, 20215 yr Author Only one appliance feeding out of the rear outlet. With regard to the 45 out of the back coupled to a 135 Tee (Through the wall) with drain/ removable cap - This would be to allow good access for cleaning.

July 14, 20215 yr Not an expert on the regs but I would say that’s a really good set up as it makes cleaning really easy.
July 14, 20215 yr Will be fine although it’s worth adding a small stub below the tee with a proper cap that allows any water to drain out.
