Your "chimney" which looks just like stove pipe is way to close to your deck. It is a serious safety risk
Thanks for all the feedback, I’m going to move it another foot away from the deck just to be safe!
This was just a dry fit run so I learned a lot. Going to grab some strap and hopefully have this done today!
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll post pictures once complete!

Why wouldn’t you just get a chimenea? (Or however thats spelled) They’re designed to be outside and would give you that ambiance you’re looking for.
Yeah that makes sense, given I stated this was for under our new patio. Also, I have a nice fire pit. But thanks for the help!

Moved it a foot further away from the deck!
Gonna get some nice brackets made up in black for the pipe, strapped it up for now!
We’ll see how the stove pipe lasts. I’ll replace with chimney pipe when needed. Thanks again to all who showed interest and helped!

And that deck will be up in smoke if there’s a flue fire. Should be 18” away from wood.
With single wall chimney pipe outside it's going to cool off quick and probably be a creosote machine, especially with wood that hasn't been sit and stacked for a year or two. I would inspect it monthly until you get a better idea how often sweeping is necessary.
Good to know. I’m probably going to replace all of this soon with double wall pipe just to be on the safe side. This won’t be used but on weekends when entertaining but can’t be too safe.
Can I “sweep” this myself with a brush and some rods?

Probably be easier from the bottom with a soot eater but rods would work if you can get to the top.
It's not going to hold up to much brushing being snaplock single wall and adjustable elbows. But your going to.have to sweep it yourself no pro will touch that. And you need chimney pipe not double wall stove pipe
