I’m getting a lot of flue pipe issues this week.


Can’t locate any codes on support requirements.


Had 5 ft. of pipe off a furnace in an attic. Has been like that for 2 yrs.

Other than 3 screws at the flange... ![icon_question.gif](upload://t2zemjDOQRADd4xSC3xOot86t0m.gif)

Code Check is a good thing to carry with you.

Thanks Brian,


I have Code check books, but did not see any support info on B Vent.

Am I missing it?

You didn’t really miss it…the IRC or other full codes may lay it-out, but Code Check, under “Oil & Gas Venting, Gas-Appliance Venting” states only that the flue should be “adequately” supported, and only then in Figure 60.
