True or False: A solid fuel burning appliance can be connected to a chimney passageway venting another appliance.

A solid fuel burning appliance should not be connected to a chimney passageway that is venting another appliance. This is due to safety concerns related to the potential for combustion gases, including carbon monoxide, to backdraft into the common chimney system. Each appliance needs a separate venting system designed to handle its specific exhaust characteristics and by-products. Allowing multiple appliances to share a chimney can lead to inadequate venting, increased risk of fire, and can compromise the efficacy of the appliance's operation. Adhering to established codes ensures safety and efficiency in the use of solid fuel appliances.
