a. Rooftop vents must terminate as follows:
The exhaust pipe can terminate in an open vertical orientation without concern
about rain infiltration; rain will drain away through the condensate trap.
Optional bird screen may be placed in a termination fitting. Leave unglued, and hold
in place with a short nipple. This permits easy access for cleaning.
Do not exhaust vent into a common venting system.
b. For rooftop direct vent systems:
Rooftop, two pipe, direct vent configurations, including typical clearance
requirements are shown below in the following images.
