What I mean is that the stove will draw air from the house and vent it up the chimney. There is some advantage IMO to supplying this air from the outdoors close to the stove, rather than drawing it from the house as a whole.
I have always brought combustion air in from the outside in an under floor pipe to the front of the wood stove or fireplace. The reason was that rather than using warmed indoor air for combustion I was using outdoor air, and thereby saving energy.
