DuraVent DirectVent Pro 8×11 Wall Strap: side support for a vertical vent run
The DuraVent DirectVent Pro 8×11 Wall Strap is a bracket that steadies vertical vent pipe against a wall. DuraVent requires one every 4 feet along an upright run. It keeps the pipe from moving sideways, but does not carry its weight. That job belongs to the support plate. DirectVent Pro 8×11 is DuraVent’s large size pipe inside a pipe vent for big direct vent gas fireplaces, with an 8 inch exhaust pipe inside an 11 inch air pipe.
For a run through the roof, the support plate at the first floor carries up to 30 feet of vent. The run also needs a firestop plate at each ceiling and an insulation shield in the attic. This is a listed vent, but the fireplace’s instructions set the space from materials that can burn, horizontal length limits, minimum rise, and how far bends can shift the pipe sideways. DuraVent does not supply those limits. Local codes apply, and the run should be inspected. Supporting a bend instead? See the DuraVent DirectVent Pro 8×11 Elbow Strap for offset support. The DuraVent DirectVent Pro 8×11 Wall Strap ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
