Default Dude it's cold! Installing a wood stove

Ok here we go. I've bought a 2nd hand iron cast wood stove. I read a couple of threads about chimney support here and this is my plan and my questions.

We live & build on a budget. I want it safe and reliable. And foremost prevent problems regarding draft rather than having to find a solution with smoke in the yurt on a cold day.

I plan to place the stove 35cm (14'') from the wall. Is that enough distance ro prevent the inner fabric from

heating

up too much? The stove has a back, horizontal exit

From the stove runs a double walled 80cm (32'') pipe trough the 'wall exit'. 1 meter long, about 3 ft. This gives me on the outside of the yurt a spacing of about 2 feet between yurt outer wall and chimney.

To go from horizontal to vertical I can use a simple 90 degrees corner piece or a 'cleanout tee'. What would you advice, is the cleanout option a must have or is simple turn also fine?
Any advice against a 90 and rather use 2 45's? I reckon this is not an issue since I have only one turn in my setup

I am thinking to start off with two meters of vertical pipe. Should this be double walled as well to prevent creosote piling? What's the downside of using simple inox pipe?

Lastly I guess I need to place something under the stove to prevent the floor from getting burnt. I would like to use tiles. What tiles can I use? Ceramic or do you need something special heat proof? Maybe a cheap solution like pizza oven stone?
