Fig. 7: Alternate constructions that allow reduced clearances to combustible materials.
REDUCTION OF CLEARANCES WITH SPECIFIED FORMS OF PROTECTION:
Type of protection applied to and covering all surfaces of combustible material within the distance
specified as the required clearance with no protection unless otherwise noted, all dimensions in inches,
refer to Fig. 7.
Required clearance with no protection from the appliance or
chimney connector is:

A. Equal the required clearance with no protection.
B. Equals the reduced clearance permitted in accordance with the preceding clearance chart.
C. The protection applied to the construction that covers the combustible material should extend far enough
in each direction to make C equal to A.
The vent connector pipe between the furnace and chimney shall be of equal diameter as the flue outlet of the
furnace.
The vent connector pipe must be made of 24 gauge (or thicker) corrosion-resistant steel. The
vent connector pipe should be as short as possible and installed so that it has a continuous rise from the
furnace to the chimney. The horizontal length of a connector to a natural draft chimney or vent serving a single
appliance shall not be more than 75 percent of the height of the vertical portion of the chimney or vent above
the connector. Elbows should be minimized and the pipe should be joined with metal screws and supported by
straps. All horizontal runs of vent connector pipe should be pitched upward a minimum of ¼ inch per foot of run.
A thimble should be used to connect the vent connector pipe to the chimney so the pipe may be readily
removed in case of inspection or replacement. See Fig. 6 on preceding page.
