VENT TERMINATION CLEARANCES
These instructions should be used as a
guideline and do not supersede local codes
in any way. Install vent according to local
codes, these instructions, the current National
Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or
the current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 in
Canada.
Vertical Vent Termination Clearances
Terminate multiple vent terminations according
to the installation codes listed above. Also see
Figure 3.
Terminate single vent caps relative to building
components according to Figures 3 and 4.
Horizontal Vent Termination Clearances
The horizontal vent termination must have a minimum of 3" (76 mm) clearance to any overhead
combustible projection of 2-1/2" (64 mm) or less (see Figure 5). For projections exceeding 2-1/2"
(64 mm), see Figure 5. For additional vent location restrictions refer to Figure 6 on Page 9.
