VENT TERMINATION
CLEARANCES
Multiple Terminations
These appliances may vent adjacent to and at
the same level with any other gas appliances
(including direct vent appliances), provided
there is at least 2 ft (0.6 m) between the proxi-
mal edges of the vent caps. These appliances
may be vented adjacent to a chimney vent
servicing a solid fuel fireplace, provided the
B-vent cap is at least 2 ft (0.6 m) away from the
nearest point of the chimney opening.
Gas Vent Rule
Gas vent caps are not permitted within 8 ft (2.4
m) of a vertical wall or similar obstruction. Gas
vent caps that are located 8 ft or more from a
portion of a building that extends at an angle
greater than 45° upward from the horizontal
may terminate in accordance with Figure 4,
provided that any discharge opening on
the cap is NEVER LESS THAN 2 ft (0.6 m)
horizontally from the roof surface (National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) “Gas
Vent Termination” section) (CAN/CGA B149.1).
