TERMINATION CLEARANCES
Vertical Sidewall Installations
Important! Minimum clearance between vent pipes and combustible
materials is 3 inch on top, and 1 inch (on bottom and sides).
Important! When vent termination exits through foundation less
than20 inches below siding outcrop, theventpipemust extend
outwardsothatthehorizontalventterminationislocatedushto,
or beyond the outcrop siding.
Information on Various Venting Routes and Components
Important:Itisalwaysbesttolocatethereplaceinsuchaway
that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.
Since it is very important that the venting system maintain its balance
betweenthecombustionairintakeandtheuegasexhaust,certain
limitations as to vent congurations apply and must be strictly
adhered to.
The graph showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal
side wall venting will help to determine the various vent lengths
allowable.
The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent pipe from
theuecollarofthereplacetothefaceoftheouterwall.
Venting termination shall not be recessed into wall or siding.
