wood burning stove flue size

dub172 · 2015-07-06 14:56:22

Hi All, I have the chance of a wood burning stove, the problem is the flue on it is 250 mm and the flue in my house is 200 mm. the house is a new build and the stove is a KAL heat pure 105. it will be used very rarely, can i use a reducer or is this asking for trouble. Appreciate any help.
