I like it. An elbow beeing used as a straight piece of vent pipe. Even looks like the pipes are two diferent sizes and they are actually using tape to join the two pipes together.
Call it as you see it.

Also in my area, 1/2 " is not allowed as a supply line. Needs to be at 3/4".

Man!!!! Why can't they do the simplest things right???

Within the last 4-5 weeks, called 2 oil furnace flue pipes taped to a different size fluepipe. What ever happened to reducer/increasers? They only cost $4-6.

Hopefully that is not a HVAC tech job!!
