Signs of Vent Pipe Damage

Visible rust or corrosion on metal vent pipes, cracks or holes in PVC vent pipes, separated joints where pipes have pulled apart, sagging sections where condensation pools, or evidence of soot near vent connections. A damaged vent can leak carbon monoxide into your home.

Why Immediate Repair Is Needed

A compromised vent pipe allows combustion gases — including carbon monoxide — to enter your living space instead of venting outside. This is a serious health hazard. Symptoms of CO exposure include headache, nausea, and dizziness. Install CO detectors on every floor of your home.

Repair Cost

Vent pipe repair costs $200-800 depending on the extent of damage. A single section replacement: $200-400. Full vent system replacement: $500-1,500. PVC vent repairs are common on high-efficiency furnaces. Metal vent repairs are typical on older standard-efficiency furnaces.
