VENTING THROUGH AN OUTSIDE WALL WITH LOW
GROUND CLEARANCE
1. When the vent piping cannot pass through an outside
wall at a height greater than or equal to 12 ″ above the
ground (or above snow accumulation level), then the
installation can be modified as shown below.
2. The total vertical and horizontal vent run cannot
exceed the maximum length with the number of 90°
elbows as specified in the tables below. If more elbows
are required the venting distance must be reduced 5
feet for every 90˚ elbow:
