The vent/wind terminal must terminate at least 3' above any
forced air inlet into the building that is within 10' of the terminal.
The terminal must also terminate 4' below, 4' horizontal from or 1'
above any door, window or other air inlet into building.
The vent/wind terminal shall not terminate over public walk-
ways or over an area where condensate or vapor could create a
nuisance or hazard or could be detrimental to the operation of
regulators, relief valves, or other equipment.
The vent/wind terminal shall have a minimum horizontal
clearance of 4' from electrical meters, gas meters, regulators,
and relief equipment.
PITCH – Venting through the wall must maintain 1/4" per foot
pitched upward to insure that condensate drains back to
furnace.
FLUE GAS DEGRADATION – The moisture content of the
flue gas may have a detrimental effect on some building materi-
als. This can be avoided by using the roof or chimney venting
option. When wall venting is used on any surface that can be
affected by this moisture, it is recommended that a corrosion
resistant shield (24 inches square) be used behind the vent
terminal. This shield can be wood, plastic, sheet metal, etc. Also,
silicone caulk all cracks, seams and joints within 3 feet of the
vent terminal.
