ᐅ How to Properly Connect a Wood-Burning Stove with External Air Supply

ny_unityHello house building friends :-)
We built our house in 2017 and moved in during 2018. Now, in 2023, we finally want to install and start using our wood-burning stove 🙂
We chose the Oranier Vantage Neo W+ in steel (black) – although I must say the color is more anthracite, but okay :-D
In the floor slab, I installed a 150 mm (6 inch) pipe, and the stove has a 100 mm (4 inch) outlet at the bottom.
My question is, how do I connect the 150 mm pipe to the 100 mm stove outlet? I was thinking of using an aluminum flexible duct. First, I would take the 150 mm size duct to fit onto the floor pipe and then reduce from the 150 mm aluminum flexible duct to 100 mm, which would then connect to the stove.
I haven’t been able to check this myself yet because a) the tile is still covering the pipe in the floor slab and b) the stove is still packed.
Could someone advise me on which materials I need to connect the 150 mm pipe to the 100 mm stove outlet?
Many thanks
Erik

You attach the aluminum flexible duct to that – the same applies to the chimney. Accessories can be found at hardware stores or in one of the thousands of online shops.

xMisterDx28 Jun 2023 21:37With all due respect... if you only know about sealing tape and are unfamiliar with pipe clamps... you might want to leave that to others.
I also expressed myself unclearly, I wrote this in a hurry, please excuse me. Here is a more detailed explanation:
There is a 150mm (6 inch) PVC pipe installed in the concrete slab. On top of that is a 16cm (6.3 inch) floor structure, finished off with a floor tile.
If I expose the PVC pipe now, I have 16cm (6.3 inches) of air below it. I can’t attach a pipe clamp around it without cutting open the floor to about 250cm (98 inches), which I want to avoid.
Simply inserting the aluminum flexible duct into the floor and sealing it at the tile edge probably wouldn’t be the best solution, right?
I’m basically looking for a way to connect my fresh air supply in the concrete slab with as little effort and minimal cutting of the floor tile as possible.
