How many angles does the flue pipe have to the exterior? Maximum bend in piping is usually 45 degrees. 90 degree bends restrict the flow.

Son of Spam,
It should work correctly but not sure the photo does not show the run of the flue. As long as the flue is correct outside of the photo it appears operational. However, it does appear to have a negitive run at the edge of the photo. Your call, if still not sure be sure to contact your local NACHI inspector and he will let you know for a small fee. |

"Son of Sam"... what an inventive, funnny, imaginitive handle you've picked. Maybe eventually some sick loner will fire a bullet into the head of someone you love and you'll get to find out what it's like to deal with senseless loss and with idiots like you.
