I'm in the starting blocks to build a wood stove and chimney.
The chimney will be stainless steel pipe and the stove some kind of corten construction.
What are the regulations?
If the house had a logging post (yes indeed, full of carpenter ants!) that has been demolished, must this still be reported to the building committee?
Is 60mm insulation enough for the roof penetration? Some have recommended 80mm.
Inspection by a chimney sweep master – sounds expensive. And can you sweep it yourself?
Is there a value on how much heat you get out of a chimney pipe per meter?
Is there, for example, any advantage to angling the chimney to get a longer pipe?
God with questions, I'm completely burnt out...

The following can be read on the National Board of Housing, Building and Planning regarding when a building notification is required:
"...installation or significant change of elevators, fireplaces, chimneys or devices for ventilation in buildings."
"...installation or significant change of elevators, fireplaces, chimneys or devices for ventilation in buildings."
Bring in a sotarmästare. If you can't afford a thousand for this, you should probably forget about installing a stove. The place might burn down because, as we know, penny-pinching deceives wisdom...
As far as I remember, a building notification is required to install a stove, and it costs about 1500:-
Then it's good to pressure test the channel, although it's not a requirement, but it's nice to know it's OK, this costs around 1000:-
When I asked the same thing, the chimney sweep said, sure you can sweep yourself, but I will come once a year anyway

Insulated with 80mm stone wool (used) on a half-meter section of 150x2 rf pipe. Fired up a ten-kilowatt propane torch for ten minutes in the pipe (then it got too hot in the workshop).
Temp inside the pipe: 720 degrees - outside on the middle section where the flange for the outer roof was attached: 45 degrees. Should almost handle a chimney fire...
Stone wool is good stuff!

You have not found out what the measurements are from the stove itself to the nearest combustible material? That is, how far out do you need to lay tiles?
