Feb 2, 2007. #3. Duravent GS (the pipe you linked to) is Direct Vent gas pipe. If your venting a wood stove you need class A chimney going up the side of the house. (Duravent builds Duratech chimney and DuraPlus chimney) The chimney must extend 3' beyond the roof line and be 2' higher than anything within 10'.

Pulling away from the house may or may not be a problem. It can absolutely be strapped back to the house or attached by through bolting with decorativeplates on the face. But many will move a bit right after construction then be fine. I don't see a gap at the flashing so I doubt it's recent movement.
