This section applies to installations where the direct vent termi-

Section 3-2-1:

VENTING LAYOUT

Selection of components and details of venting lay out should

adhere to the following guidelines:

„

The maximum termination point is 32’ above the fireplace.

(NOTE: if the maximum termination height is used, the flame

pattern may be affected).

„

The Vertical termination must be a minimum 2’ higher

than where the termination exits the roofing materials,

(asphalt shingles, cedar shakes, etc). This distance should

be measured from the high side of the roof slope where the

flue flashing intersects the roofing materials. (see Figures

9 - 9c).

„

For a detailed diagram of allowed termination locations, see

Appendix A.

„

Termination location must be a minimum 6’ from a mechanical

air inlet.

„

A maximum of two offsets (each offset is made up of 2-90°

bends) may be made for vertical vent runs.

„

Firestops must be installed as required by National & local

codes.

„

Ensure all horizontal runs are supported with a minimum of 3

supports per 10’ of venting.

„

Install all roof flashing and storm collars as shown.
