The 6" black pipe that exits the stove makes a 90 degree elbow into metalbestus triple wall polished stainless pipe, that goes through the wall with a 6" air gap all the way around it (we cut an 18" square out of the wall, and mounted a pipe isolator).
The 3 wall pipe goes through the wall to a 3 wall "T" that has a cleanout underneath. The 3 wall pipe extends for 23' up the outside of the house, and through an angled eve with the same 6" isolator, and another 4' above the peak for good draw.
I generally clean the pipe 3 times a year, with special attention to the stainless cap, that gets partially clogged with creosote. The stove burns so efficient that I usually get about 1-2" of soot, and creosote in the bottom of a 5 gallon bucket from all 30' of pipe. I take it seriously !

That's the way to do it!
