Details of Intake and Exhaust Piping Terminations for
Direct Vent Installations
NOTE - In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is tak
en from outdoors and flue gases are discharged to out
doors.
NOTE - Flue gas may be slightly acidic and may adversely
affect some building materials. If any vent termination is
used and the flue gasses may impinge on the building ma
terial, a corrosion-resistant shield (minimum 24 inches
square) should be used to protect the wall surface. If the
optional tee is used, the protective shield is recommended.
The shield should be constructed using wood, plastic,
sheet metal or other suitable material. All seams, joints,
cracks, etc. in the affected area should be sealed using an
appropriate sealant. See figure 42.
Intake and exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally
through an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In at
tic or closet installations, vertical termination through the
roof is preferred. Figures 34 through 41 show typical termi
nations.
1. Intake and exhaust terminations are not required to be
in the same pressure zone. You may exit the intake on
one side of the structure and the exhaust on another
side (figure 35). You may exit the exhaust out the roof
and the intake out the side of the structure (figure 36).
2. Intake and exhaust pipes should be placed as close
together as possible at termination end (refer to illus
trations). Maximum separation is 3” (76mm) on roof
terminations and 6” (152mm) on side wall termina
tions.
NOTE - When venting in different pressure zones, the
maximum separation requirement of intake and ex
haust pipe DOES NOT apply.
3. On roof terminations, the intake piping should termi
nate straight down using two 90° elbows (See figure
34).
4. Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. A reducer may be required on the exhaust pip
ing at the point where it exits the structure to improve
the velocity of exhaust away from the intake piping.
See table 15.

mount termination must use the 1-1/2”accelerator supplied
with the kit.
NOTE - Care must be taken to avoid recirculation of ex
haust back into intake pipe.
5. On field-supplied terminations for side wall exit, ex
haust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches
(305mm) for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508mm) for 3”
(76mm) PVC beyond the outside wall. Intake piping
should be as short as possible. See figure 42.
6. On field-supplied terminations, a minimum distance
between the end of the exhaust pipe and the end of
the intake pipe without a termination elbow is 8” and a
minimum distance of 6” with a termination elbow. See
figure 42.
