It will not work very well. Many days when you open the door the smoke will come out the door. You can purchase a reducer to make it work, but if there is any possible way to install the 8 inch pipe, I would recommend it.
I sell stoves in BC. Codes here dictate that you can only step down the flue size by 1 inch. Make sure you check with your insurance company. They will look for anything to void your coverage if there is a fire. I agree with the fellow above: put in an 8" chimney or get a stove with a 6" collar.
If your chimney flue is cool enough, water will condense inside, and then evaporate via steam when the boiler fires. You may also have water coming in from rain, and may want to purchase a chimney cap to prevent water from getting in.
I'm sure this isn't what you want to hear, but you probably need to ask an electrician familiar with your service and what you want to connect. As a general answer, you can connect a 240v line to line resistive load like an electric water heater to any 240v source. If you also need the 240v to have 120v line to neutral, like a 240v electric stove that contains a 120v clock and oven light, then its possible if the 3 phase power is connected in a "high delta" configuration, and you connect to the correct leads. If you have a high delta service and want to ignore the 3-phase power service and wire most or all of the loads in the building as a single phase load, the utility may have to be consulted.

I have a wood burning fireplace and want to clean the chimney. Are there specialized chimney cleaning tools? Or should I just use a long handled brush or broom?
The greatest problem would be accidental fires. These are caused by improper installation of the stove (having it too close to a combustible surface) and failure to maintain the stove and chimney (cleaning chimney of creosote buildup). You will also need to dispose of ash and coals safely. We have heated with wood for years, and enjoy it, but it does require attention, care, and tending the fire. Some people will not devote the attention and energy that it requires- they just want to push the button on the thermostat.
Short answer: probably not. Longer answer: It depends on the size of wire feeding the stove, the stove amperage, and what you intend to connect to the new 15A circuit. If you just want to wire a light for the garage, sure go ahead. If you want to install a receptacle for a microwave oven, no way. Make sure you put a fuse to protect the circuit you are connecting.

A good book that probably will answer your questions is Woodstove Cookery:At Home on the Range by Jane Cooper. It tells you how to find, set up, fuel, take care of , cleaning and how to cook on it. The book includes recipies from soups to breads and everything in between. I am going to assume the opposite of the other answer, and believe you just want to heat your house with it. All the info you need can be found in one free click here: http://putnut.hubpages.com/hub/Heating-Your-House-with-a-Wood-Burning-Furnace
Yeh, that's all i can say. If u want details then go on wikipedia.
The stove would be covered just as any other part of the home and contents are covered. Make sure you tell the agent and insurance company about the stove and they want to inspect it to make sure it is installed correctly and is not a hazard.
I want to be a chimney sweeper. What are some of the health and safety concerns for chimney sweepers?
- -Originial Answer - - You can buy adaptors for this. Make sure you use the regulator that came with the stove.- -Discussion - - Where can you buy these adaptors? For example if you have a portable stove/heater that uses the disposable cannister type 1A-MSF and you want to connect to a tank. I have searched the net and left messages on camping forum websites, but haven't found one yet.......
Online-ebay, craigs list, amazon. Other than that you will have to find someone who will want one, no stores will buy them really.
