A single-wall vent pipe used as a vent connector in resi-
dential or commercial applications, or as a vertical vent in
commercial applications, must have all seams and joints
sealed with pressure-sensitive aluminum tape or silicone
rubber sealant. The aluminum tape must have a
temperature rating of 400°F (204°C) i.e., 3M 433 or
equivalent. Silicone rubber sealant must have a
temperature rating of 482°F (250°C), i.e., Dow Corning
RTV-736 or equivalent. All joints must be secured with at
least two corrosion-resistant screws. All joints must be
checked for gas tightness after installation. Single-wall
vent pipe used as vertical vent in commercial
applications must not pass through any attic, interior wall,
concealed space, or floor.
