    Default Water heater vent size increase and penetration

    This water heater vent connects to a larger flue pipe in the attic. Is this acceptable? I was thinking that it may interfere with proper venting.

    Also this ceiling penetration looks like a wall thimble. Are these allowed in ceilings?

    Looks like a classic spillage. The house has a lot of fresh air coming in or their might be bodies.

    I don't believe there is any spillage, it appears that the pipe passes directly through the penetration.
