Questions people ask us
What does it connect?
It joins 8" Model BV to the appliance draft hood, or joins single-wall vent connector pipe to the Type B vent.
Can I use this on a wood stove, pellet stove or oil furnace?
No. Duravent lists Model BV Type B gas vent for listed natural gas or LP Category I gas appliances with draft hoods and appliances listed for Type B vent, with flue gases up to 470°F. Its catalog warns that oil or wood burning appliances can damage the vent, and it is not for Category II, III or IV gas appliances. Wood and pellet appliances need a chimney or vent system listed for them.
Who should install it?
Duravent warrants the vent fully only when a professional installer puts it in. A licensed gas professional should install the system to Duravent's instructions, NFPA 54 (the National Fuel Gas Code) and local codes. The appliance manufacturer's manual decides which venting is approved and the vent size and layout, so send us the appliance model and we will check.
