49066 Rigid Liner Elbows & Tees FAQ
What is the difference between rigid liner elbows and single-wall pipe elbows?
Rigid liner elbows are designed for use with solid rigid liner systems offering superior insulation and corrosion resistance. Single-wall elbows work with single-wall pipe and provide efficient heat transfer. Choose based on your complete venting system type - rigid liner systems must use rigid liner fittings for proper fit and performance.
Can I use 45-degree and 90-degree elbows in the same chimney system?
Yes, both 45-degree and 90-degree elbows can be used in the same system. 45-degree elbows minimize draft resistance and are preferred when possible. 90-degree elbows provide complete directional changes and are necessary for complex routing. Follow local codes for total bend allowances in vertical runs.
What is a rigid liner tee used for?
Rigid liner tees create branch connections where two or more vent lines need to combine into a single chimney. They're commonly used for multi-appliance installations or connecting cleanout ports. Always verify tee sizing matches your system and consult codes for proper installation angles and clearances.
How do I properly install the 49066 elbows and tees?
Slide the fitting over the rigid liner pipe sections, ensuring proper overlap (typically 1-2 inches). Secure with hose clamps on both sides of the fitting with even tension. Apply pipe sealant if required by local codes. Do not force connections - proper fit should be smooth and relatively easy.
Are the 49066 components weather-resistant?
Stainless steel rigid liner components offer excellent corrosion resistance and weathering protection for outdoor applications. Aluminum variants provide good performance but benefit from protective coating in harsh marine or industrial environments. Always install roof flashing and storm collars at exit points for maximum weather protection.
What clearance requirements apply to rigid liner elbows and tees?
Follow NFPA 211 minimum clearances of 18 inches from combustible materials. Maintain these clearances around all elbows and tees regardless of routing direction. Some jurisdictions have stricter requirements - always consult local building codes and fire department guidelines before installation.
Can rigid liner elbows handle the full temperature of exhaust gases?
Yes, the 49066 components are rated up to 1000°F continuous service, suitable for hot exhaust from wood stoves, pellet stoves, and fireplace inserts. The rigid construction maintains integrity at high temperatures. Ensure proper clearances from combustibles as exhaust temperatures may still cause surface heating.
What maintenance do rigid liner elbows and tees require?
Inspect annually during chimney cleaning for creosote buildup in the fitting areas. Clean with appropriate chimney brushes sized for your diameter. Check hose clamps for tightness and corrosion. Replace any corroded or damaged clamps. Have a professional chimney sweep inspect the integrity of all fittings yearly.
