Hello,

I really like the idea of exchanging the pvc out to metal, that would create a natural pull fan effect. Nice suggestion and good use of thermal properties imo.

Though the cap (of the chimney) is the only metal required if you wanted the weight down and non-rusting weather resistance that pvc gives. PVC a little nicer to glue to other foams/plastics as well.
