Hi All,
I apologize if this has been posted already, or if this is the wrong forum for this. My questions pertain specifically to the building codes and practices in Ontario, Canada.
I'm looking at running a horizontal vent pipe, 1.5" ID,~2" OD, through a load bearing 2x4 wall. Is this permitted? If it's not permitted, what are the common workarounds for this? If I can't go through the load bearing wall, can I pickup the vent pipe from the floor below and make a vent loop that goes above the flood line of my appliance?
Thanks in advance,
Ivan
