I have seen that in many areas old masonry chimneys are required to have a 'liner'.
An 8 inch stove pipe ran down inside the old chimney is a really cheap method of accomplishing the task.
I meant <$150 for the entire woodstove project including stovepipe.
I budgeted the project as a whole.
Why would you pay $1500 for a stove pipe?
That double wall pipe can get spendy, If you have no chimney and have to use only the double wall. New construction has no fireplaces to speak of. Our last home was that way, and it was 1500 bucks for install in the basement or 500 in the upstairs living room, we went upstairs.

Always comply with your local building codes.
If your local gestapo requires double or even triple walled stove pipe; then that is what you should do. You pay their salaries, so you should follow their guidance.
I would dislike living in 'new construction' like that.
I am not entirely finished building our new home, ran out of funding. I do understand that things get expensive.

Most of the houses we've been looking at have more than one source of heat, and I would like to have one with a wood or gas fireplace or wood stove for times when the power goes out. Not to mention a down comforter for the bed.
