Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Plan the vent run to keep total length and support spacing within DuraVent's DirectVent Pro installation instructions, and use 3 ft. galvanized sections to minimize joints on straight runs. Where the vent passes through an attic, the insulation shield is required to maintain clearance to combustibles and keep insulation away from the pipe. Always match pipe diameter and system (5 in. x 8 in. inner diameter for DirectVent Pro) to your appliance listing.
Vent systems must be installed to the manufacturer's listing, maintaining required clearances to combustibles; improper installation can create fire or exhaust hazards.
Order Simpson DuraVent galvanized vent pipe in 3-8 in. diameters to complete your DirectVent Pro run.
