How tall FAU Flue
Hi
I have a FAU installed in my 2-story attic. The unit is upright and the length of the exhaust pipe to the roof line is 3 1/2 feet. The leght of the exhast pipe above the tile was 2 feet. Now the roofer has replaced the old externalpiece (2 footer) with just a "T" which is more or less couple of inches above the roof tile. Is this a problem?
Thanks
Neil

Hi Grady
Thanks for the reply. No this not a liner inside a masonary chimney. It is just metal. As I mentioned in my original post, the roofer placed a "T" just few inches above the roof tile and you mentioned two foot above roof line. Please confirm? also, should it be double lined?
Thanks

Hi Grady
Thanks for the reply. No this not a liner inside a masonary chimney. It is just metal flue. As I mentioned in my original post, the roofer placed a "T" flashing just few inches above the roof tile and you mentioned the need to be two feet above roof line even though this is just a flue for a gas unit sitting in the attic three feet below the roof. Please confirm?
