In my case we talk about 200 Celsius in the chimney. But you are still
probably right that its not worth the trouble for what you get out of
it. Still its a lot of energy going that way.

A totally different thing.
I noticed your signature "BillW" and the sender address in your mail is
"William Chops Westfield". It's a total mystery to me how "William"
becomes "Bill", its the same with Bill Gates etc. Can someone explain
this to me, please...

Note that modern furnaces are so efficient that they use plastic
exhaust pipe (and not high-temp plastic, either.)  Seems to me like
you'd be going to a lot of trouble to gain something like 1% additional
efficiency...
