Flue

The passage carrying combustion products out — one appliance, one flue, correctly sized.

What is Flue?

The interior channel of the chimney. Its cross-sectional area has to match what the appliance produces: oversized runs cool the gases and increase deposit, undersized cannot carry the volume and spills. Connecting two appliances to one flue is a defect in most residential configurations, not a space-saving choice.
