<br />ance shan be inter-connected with any other vent pipe, smoke pipe,
<br />or flue, unless such gas appliance is equipped with an automatic
<br />device to prevent the escape of unburned gas at the main burner or
<br />burners. Where a gas appliance vent pipe is joined with a smoke
<br />pipe from an appliance burning some other type of fuel, for connec-
<br />tion into a single flue opening, they shall be joined by a Y fitting
<br />located as close as practicable to the chimney. With liquefied
<br />petroleum gases the automatic device to prevent the escape of un-
<br />burned gas shall shut off the pilot light as well as the main burner
<br />or burners.

<br />more than 15 pounds pressure with a rating of more than 10 boiler
<br />horsepower, in other than factori.es, shall be separated from the
