I have seen some that exit the side wall and don't even turn up with a special termination on the end.

Consult manufactures installation diagrams.

What good is that if they don't discuss pellet stoves?

They discuss all types ,but perhaps you have a better suggestion you are withholding.

The man is looking for help,not argument.

I'm not arguing Bob.

I already said to consult the manufacture diagrams and specs.

That is where you will find the venting requirements and clearances for any particular model.

"The pellet stove was vented improperly. In addition to potential exposure of those using the deck to the toxic products of of combustion, the current method is also a burn hazard.
The inspector recommends that before the expiration of your Inspection Objection Deadline, you consult with a qualified HVAC contractor to gain an idea of options and costs for correction".
