This woodburner is vented into same unlined chimney as water heater and furnace, which I’m assuming is not correct, no? Additionally, the vent slopes downward??? Any helpful insight and/or narratives is greatly appreciated.
Furnace exhaust is pipe above. Water heater vents on the other side.
Josh, I found one of these last year. If it is wood burning it should be in a flue by itself, from what I got from the plumbers and heating guys I talked to.
In Canada, you may vent oil and wood boilers/forced air furnaces into the same flue if the appliances are certified for use with each other and are vented from the same house level. You can not vent an oil water heater into that flue. A wood stove cannot, at anytime, be vented into a flue serving an oil appliance.
