Does Black Foil tape exist? The metallic colored stuff is easy to find, but I want some black, because my vent pipe is black.
I have concluded that my Simpson duravent pipe sucks, and it leaks at the folded seams. It leaks only a small amount for a few days after I do my monthly vent pipe cleaning until the leaks are plugged with ash. So this is really only an issue for a few days a month. BUT it shouldn't be an issue at all. I have CO detectors with digital readout, so I know the sitution isn't dangerous. The highest reading ever was 10ppm, and that actually happened on a day the gas oven was being used alot, so it was unlikely pellet related. The acrid smoky smell is more of a nuisance that anything, my wife doesn't even notice it. Yes, I had siliconed the joints prior to assembly.
