Vent pipe that rattles or sags

A vent pipe that rattles in a chase or sags in an attic has lost its support. Joints can pull apart under the weight, and on a direct-vent run a gap in the inner pipe feeds exhaust back into the intake. Supports that let go can also let a pipe drift against framing it should clear.

We support the run as its maker requires, reseat and lock the joints, and replace any section that has bent out of shape. Rattling or sagging vent pipe on a gas fireplace in O'Neil? Get it looked at free at (904) 920-5495.

What Type B vent is

Type B gas vent is double-wall pipe for natural-draft gas appliances. Section 502.1 of Florida's fuel gas code requires Type B and BW gas vents to be listed and labeled and tested to UL 441, and the appliance's manual names the diameter.

One maker's B-vent fireplaces use a 4-inch vent on one model and a 6-inch vent on others. The inner and outer walls keep the hot exhaust away from framing, and the space between them is part of the design. Replacement sections match the listing and the diameter the manual calls for. Single-wall pipe is not a substitute anywhere a Type B vent is required.

Caps set flush, not buried

Terminations are meant to stand out in the open. One maker's manual states that venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or siding, which traps exhaust and heat around the cap.

Siding replaced after installation sometimes ends up standing proud of an old cap, leaving it sunk in a pocket. We check the cap against the wall surface and use the maker's extension or standoff parts where the siding has changed, so the termination sits where the listing expects it. A recessed cap also collects debris faster.

Wall caps near salt air

Close to the coast, the metal of a wall or roof termination sits in air carrying salt. Rust shows first on the screen, the guard and the screws, and a screen narrowed by corrosion chokes the intake air a direct-vent unit depends on.

On vent calls near the coast the termination gets a close look, and any replacement part is ordered by the vent maker's part number. After storms, sand and salt crust are cleared from the screen before the unit runs again. Fasteners get replaced with the maker's parts, not whatever screws are handy.
