These fabulous pics are from a flue pipe install on a rehabbed house in Phlli today. They chose to completely bypass the old masonry chimney and install a new flue incorrectly in just about every way imgainable. There was water on the floor in the basement beneath the flue pipe and inside the flue cleanout cap. On the exterior, they attached single walled pipe to type-B pipe but sleeved it in so that the junction is open to water penetration.
Improper connections, lack of clearance to combustible surfaces, improper clearance above roof line, located directly outside a bedroom window........this one had it all and then some more. Enjoy!
