Details of Exhaust Piping Terminations for Non-Direct
Vent Applications
Exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally through
an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In attic or
closet installations, vertical termination through the roof
is preferred. Figure 43 and Figure 44 shows typical termi-
nations.
1 - Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. The termination pipe must be sized as listed
in TABLE 8. The specied pipe size ensures proper
velocity required to move the exhaust gases away
from the building.
2 - On eld supplied terminations for side wall exit,
exhaust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches
(305mm) for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508mm) for 3”
(76mm) PVC beyond the outside wall.
3 - If exhaust piping must be run up a side wall to position
above snow accumulation or other obstructions,
piping must be supported every 24 inches (610mm).
When exhaust piping must be run up an outside wall,
any reduction in exhaust pipe size must be done
after the nal elbow.
4 - Distance between exhaust pipe terminations on
multiple furnaces must meet local codes.
