Need advice. This is 4 inch duravent which requires 1 ' clearance to combustibles. When going through my foundation I hit 2 pieces of rebar which I did not want to cut. So as a result this is where my vent ended up. I've got a hare more than 3/4 inch clearance from pipe to the siding outside. Behind the siding is an inch of concrete then my wall base 2by4. At this point the vent piping run it is 6 feet up and about 2 feet horizontal downstream from stove. Not sure how hot this will actually get outside? Should I use a dremel and carve out a half inch of siding? I dont want to but I also want to sleep at night not worrying about it.
*note* the steel bracket is just a brace for the piping untill I mortar the whole back. Probally dont need it there.
