I just have a few issues

1.Its a new build no chimney
2. the wall I want it is backed to an external wall so the flu can go out side.(maybe not an issue)
3. its three storeys high the house
4. The internal wall is plaster board dot an dab

I costed one for my house which basically would involve re-lining my chimney I was working on £600 for stove and £400 on all the gear. That was doing the work myself. I don't know if you need a test on a solid fuel stove...didn't get to that stage.

External twin wall flue would be significantly more than a chimney liner for 3 storey house. More than the stove...

Depends on a lot of factors, also over 5kw requires permanent ventilation. Building control need to be notified, and the majority of deaths through CO in the U.K come from DIY solid fuel appliances being fitted, so get advise before doing so as it's not just a case of chucking it in a lighting!
