Any feedback on the supports used for the exhaust and intake air for this boiler would be appreciated. Also, do you think the exhaust air should slope up a lot more than what it does right after it exits the boiler?


Thanks,

Ryan

The only thing I can say is "What do the manufacturer's installation instructions state?" - that is what you would need to go by.

Not sure pitch is a big issue beyond condemsation concerns. Exhaust is probably fan induced. I'm more concerned about install exceeding max 90's

The supports look like they used what they had at hand. I doubt that anyone would approved of a 2x12 and a section of ABS pipe as a proper support.

As Jerry said, you would need to know the manufacturers requirements before you really say much. If I did not have the venting requirements I would say so, and also note that supports are most likely not an approved method of supporting the pipes.
