Rooftop Installations; Minimum Clearance For Boiler Connections - Patterson-Kelley DVSCM-02 Owner's Manual

®
Thermific Gas-Fired Boiler
If the air inlet and/or exhaust vent terminal are through
the sidewall, clearances from other exhaust/inlet,
windows, doors, building openings, snow line, etc
must be as shown in the figure above.
There must be either 5' vertical separation or 10'
horizontal separation between the flue gas outlet and
the combustion air inlet.
The bottom of the flue gas outlet must be located at
least 12 inches above finish grade or snow line, but
must be at least 7 feet above finish grade when located
adjacent to a public walkway. It must also have a
minimum clearance of 4 feet horizontally from, and in
no case above or below, (unless a 4 foot horizontal
distance is maintained,) electric meters, gas meters,
regulators and relief equipment.
