"PL Vent", Must be used. This air space acts as an insulator and reduces the outside surface temperature to allow a clearance to combustibles of 1 to 3 inches. The sections of pipe lock together to form an air tight seal in most cases. However, in some cases a perfect seal is not achieved. For this rea
