Ventis Double Wall Black Stove Pipe: Safely Linking Class-A Chimney to Your Heating Appliance

A Path to Secure Connection: In the world of heating appliances, a crucial component often bridges the gap between the chimney and the appliance itself. This connector pipe plays an essential role, whether your chimney is a Class-A pipe or a masonry structure. Its significance lies in its ability to safely channel flue gases to the chimney without any risk of leakage into your living space. Equally important is maintaining proper clearance from combustible materials. Not to be overlooked, the aesthetics matter, as this pipe is the visible face of your venting system. When it comes to making a choice, Ventis Black Stove Pipe in a double-wall configuration stands as the clear winner.

 Advantages:

• Fume-Free Operation: Bid farewell to fumigating effects during the initial firing.
• Enhanced Durability: The outer wall, constructed from robust 24-gauge satin coat steel, ensures longevity.
• Optimal Airflow: A thermal web design promotes continuous air circulation, resulting in cooler outer pipe temperatures.
• Versatile Selection: Ventis offers a comprehensive range of pipe lengths, slope sections, and telescoping sections to suit your needs.
• Wood Burning Stove Pipe Clearances: Installation of double-wall flue pipes should adhere to the manufacturer's instructions, typically requiring a 6-inch clearance from combustible materials.
• The Benefits of Double-Wall Pipe: Double-wall pipe offers an extended lifespan and improved draft efficiency. It's particularly recommended for use in mobile homes. The air-insulated design prevents the exterior of the pipe from radiating heat, as often seen with single-wall alternatives. This air insulation contributes to better wood stove performance, maintaining a higher and consistent flue temperature. Although double-wall pipe may have a higher initial cost, the long-term performance gains often result in overall savings.
• The Superiority of Double-Wall Pipe: With a stainless steel inner wall and a galvanized outer wall, double-wall pipe surpasses single-wall alternatives in quality. Additionally, it produces less creosote buildup.

Installation Guidelines:

1. Clearance: Ensure a minimum 6-inch clearance between the stove connector and any combustible material.
2. Telescopic Length: For most straight installations, a telescopic length is typically sufficient.
3. Maximum Length: The maximum overall length of a straight pipe should not exceed 10 feet.
4. Elbow Usage: Two 45-degree elbows are often preferable to a single 90-degree elbow for reduced turbulence in exhaust flow and less horizontal run.
5. Material Choice: Use black painted flue pipes; avoid galvanized flue pipes due to the potential vaporization of coatings at high temperatures.
6. Thickness Requirement: Flue pipes with diameters of 6, 7, and 8 inches should be at least 24 gauge in thickness.
7. Joint Overlap: Flue pipe joints should overlap by 1 1/4 inches and be secured with at least three screws.
8. Expansion Allowance: Elbows in assemblies should account for expansion, and straight assemblies should include an inspection wrap with one end unfastened or a telescopic section.
9. Minimum Upward Slope: Ensure a minimum upward slope toward the chimney of 2 1/4 inches per foot.
10. Secure Attachment: One end of the assembly should be securely fastened to the flue collar with three sheet metal screws, and the other end should be securely fastened to the chimney.
11. Cleaning Provisions: The assembly should allow for cleaning through a cleanout or by removing the pipe assembly, without requiring stove movement.
12. Orientation: Ensure the crimped ends (male) of the sections are oriented toward the appliance to contain falling dust and condensation within the pipe.
13. Location: Never allow a flue pipe to pass through a combustible floor or ceiling, or through an attic, roof space, closet, or concealed space.

In summary, Ventis Double Wall Black Stove Pipe offers both safety and performance in connecting your Class-A chimney to your heating appliance, ensuring a seamless and secure venting system.
