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.
Slope the horizontal vent 1/4" upwards
for every 300mm (12").
Use a condensation drain if necessary.
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
a carbon monoxide detector is required
for all side wall horizontally vented gas
fuel equipment. Please refer to Technical
Bulletin TB 010606 for full installation
instructions.
**0.3m (1')
Minimum
**0.3m (1') minimum
recommended, but not required.
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.
Terminate the vent system at least 0.6m (2')
above, but not more than 1.8m (6') above
the roof line, or according to the vent pipe
manufacturer's instructions.
Terminate the vent system at least 0.6m (2')
above any portion of a building located
within 3m (10') horizontally.
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") towards the water heater to
drain condensate.
