The  heat  in  the  flue  gases  that  pass  from  the  stove  and  chimney  connector  into  the 
chimney  is  not  waste  heat.  This  heat  is  what  the  chimney  uses  to  make  the  draft  that 
draws  in  combustion  air,  keeps  smoke  inside  the  stove  and  safely 
outside. You can think of heat in the flue gas as the fuel the chimney uses to make draft.
