• Terminate at least 300mm (12") above grade
or above snow line.
• Terminate at least 2.1m (7') above a public
walkway, 1.8m (6') from the combustion air
intake of any appliance, and 0.9m (3') from
any other building opening, gas utility meter,
service regulator etc.
• Terminate at least 0.9m (3') above any forced
air inlet within 3m (10'), 1.2m (4') below,
1.2m (4') horizontally from or 0.3m (1') above
any door, window, or gravity air inlet into any
building per National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CSA-B149.1.
• Slope the horizontal vent 1/4" upwards for
every 300mm (12") toward the termination.
• Use a condensation drain if necessary.

Terminate at least from the combustion air
intake of any appliance, and 0.9m (3') from
any other building opening, gas utility meter,
service regulator etc.
Enclose exterior vent systems below the
roof line to limit condensation and protect
against mechanical failure.
When the vent penetrates a floor or ceiling
and is not running in a fire rated shaft, a
firestop and support is required.
When the vent termination is located not
less than 2.4m (8') from a vertical wall or
similar obstruction, terminate above the
roof at least 0.6m (2'), but not more than
1.8m (6'), in accordance with the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
and/or CSA-B149.1.
Provide vertical support every 0.9m (3') or
as required by the vent pipe manufacturer's
instructions.
A short horizontal section is recommended
to prevent debris from falling into the water
heater.
When using a horizontal section, slope the
horizontal vent 1/4” upwards for every
300mm (12") toward the termination to drain
condensate.
