Intent
Intent 1: 
To limit the probability that condensate or corrosive gases from a failed flue liner will lead to the failure of an adjacent flue that serves another appliance, which could lead to backdrafting of combustion products into living space, which could lead to negative effects on the air quality of indoor spaces, which could lead to harm to persons.
