Venting Gas Hot Water Heaters
It is not uncommon to vent the hot water heater and furnace both through the same chimney. I n some cases that might not be an option so an additional venting system would be used possibly a power vent system as well. If you visit this site http://www.americanwaterheater.com/support/manuals/res-gas.pdf it can assist you when venting a gas hot water heater or you can refer to the manual instructions that came with your heater.
