My pellet stove's 3" diameter exhaust pipe passes horizontally through the outside wall of the house (through a thimble or whatever they call the thru-wall fitting). Currently it terminates about a foot away from the siding in a horizontal exhaust vent.
I recently installed a heating oil tank in my basement, and there is a vent pipe from the oil tank that exits the basement about a foot or two away from the pellet stove's exhaust pipe. To meet code, I believe that I must keep the pellet stove's exhaust outlet at least ten feet from the oil tank vent.
My plan is to remove the exhaust fitting from the thru-wall fitting, replace it with a cleanout Tee (http://www.lowes.com/pd_53936-76845-AC-3067_4294934297+4294809884_40_?productId=3134669&Ns=p_product_prd_lis_ord_nbr|0||p_product_quantity_sold|1&pl=1¤tURL;=/pl_Simpson+DuraVent_4294934297+4294809884_40_?Ns=p_product_prd_lis_ord_nbr|0||p_product_quantity_sold|1) and then to go up from there with ten feet of 3" pipe, to a 90-degree fitting at the top, a 1-foot section, and then finally the exhaust fitting.
I need to support the pipe (from the siding of the house) near the top with some kind of bracket. I got a Simpson Dura-Vent bracket (similar to http://www.lowes.com/pd_62710-76845...avent&pl=1¤tURL;=/pl__0__s?Ntt=duravent but without the third support leg), however it is not long enough - I need an additional 8" (beyond the length of the bracket).
So, can someone point me to either a longer-legged bracket, or an extension bracket to add to the one that I have?
I have considered looking for some stainless steel sheet metal stock and fabricating my own extender, but surely I'm not the only person who has faced this problem...
