I'm having some issues finding a good way to connect my stove pipe to my chimney. I have a 8" to 6" reducer coming right out of the ceiling box (first photo), and what I need help finding is an adapter that will go from Duravent's 6" double wall stove pipe, to a 6" single wall stove pipe. They seem to have an adpater for their 6" dvl pipe to the stove (second photo), but would that work for connecting to the chimney? Can it be put upside down?

Double-wall and single-wall are not meant to be mixed. There is no factory adapter for this purpose. If you do convert from DVL to single-wall, clearances for entire length of connector default to single-wall.
 
Are you using doublewall pipe for clearance needs? Single wall needs 18" to combustibles, doublewall normally 6" unless stove MFR or pipe MFR says different. Like Canman said too, they aren't meant to mix. Keep warm.
 
It's going to depend on what chimney support is being connected to. Is it Duratech? If so, use an 8" DVL adapter to a 6DVL-X8 DVL increaser.
