Hello,
I have a stove chimney with a flue pipe connection at the top.
The chimney is located against the wall, and the chimney stack is built in front of the wall to the left of the stove.
So, I need a flue pipe going upward, then a bend to the left, leading into the (side) chimney opening.
However, the opening in the chimney stack is only 3 cm (1 inch) from the wall, while the one on the stove is 11 cm (4.5 inches).
Which flue pipe component can I use to compensate for this slight offset (difference)?
Thanks for your suggestions and help!

Could a multi-angle bracket help in this case? And is it possible to use a multi-angle bracket to achieve both the offset and the 90° angle at the same time?

A slightly different question, since the wood-burning stove looks quite old. Is it still allowed and has it been approved by the chimney sweep? I would move the stove further away from the wall. Yes, the pipe needs an additional 45° bend.

Well, this stove is still available on the market. So I assume it meets current regulations. The chimney sweep will need to inspect it again because the chimney was only added recently.

Why? I want to place the stove in a space-saving way.

So it should be manageable with a multi-angle elbow, right?

The stove needs to be positioned much further away from the wall on the left. At least 20 cm (8 inches) distance to non-combustible parts is required by regulations. Since you have a wooden floor, you also need to install a spark guard plate. It must extend at least 30 cm (12 inches) to the right and left, and 50 cm (20 inches) to the front.

Thank you for this advice.

There is a spark guard plate in front of the stove, as can be seen in the photo above.
