Vent Information

A. Venting Termination Minimum Requirements

NOTICE:

Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation.

• It is recommended that at least 60 inches (1.52m) of vertical

pipe be installed when appliance is vented directly through a
wall. This will create a natural draft, which will help prevent
the possibility of smoke or odor venting into the home during
a power outage.

• It will also keep exhaust from causing a nuisance or hazard

by exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures.

• The safest and preferred venting method is to extend the

vent vertically through the roof or above the roof.
