This video breaks down a serious mistake we found during an HVAC upgrade. The original setup was a mid-efficiency furnace vented with galvanized single-wall pipe—standard for its time. But when the system was upgraded to a high-efficiency furnace, the installer reused that old venting.
Big problem. High-efficiency units produce heavy condensation, and that moisture eats through galvanized pipe fast. Rust, corrosion, and even potential carbon monoxide leaks are on the table.
