Bought an Englander 55-SHP10.

Have to do a corner install but am running into some chimney issues. There's an adjacent structure at the corner i'm putting it in with a lower roof line than the main house, plus a deck there.

Can this be done:

Offset stove in corner
Place cleanout tee off stove adapter
Rise approx. 5 feet up
90 degree out
1 foot through the thimble (i'd stop there with the vent, problem is the vent would fall from center only 13 inches to adjacent structure)
90 degree up again
6 feet of pipe to get 2 to 3 foot above adjacent structure
Vent


That's 3 90's if the tee is included which i'd assume it is, and from what i've read is probably a no no :). Any thoughts on this setup? Any help is appreciated.
 
This is the owners manual for my Quad. Santa Fe. If you go to D.Pipe selection chart you can figures out what you need. The chart tells you when you need to up your pipe diameter. The tee does count the same as a 90 equal to five feet of straight pipe. (broken link removed)
 
this is quite similar to what i plan on doing with the same stove. adapter, tee, 5' vertical, elbow, 2' through wall, elbow, then 3.5' vertical, cap. we'll see...
