be located less than 1
' (.3 m) above grade level.
The vent shall not terminate less than 7 ' (2.1 m)
above grade where located adjacent to public
walkways.
Vent terminal must be installed at a height sufficient
to prevent blockage by snow, and building materials
protected from degradation by flue gases.
Secure all joints with #8 x 3/8 sheet metal screws.
Seal all joints with high temperature silicone sealant.
Vent terminal must be beyond any combustible
overhang.

sealant in the vent pipe. Insulation and additional
sealing measures will be required.
Optional heat exchanger lengths are considered as
vent length for length determination.
Subtract 15' (4 m) of maximum allowed vent or
outside air duct length per vent elbow if more than
three are used.
