Section 3-2: Installing a Roof Mounted Direct Vent
Termination
This section applies to installations where the direct vent termination
will be roof mounted.

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 8 to 8c).
• See Appendix A for termination locations.
• For a more detailed diagram of allowed termination locations, see
Appendix A.
• 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.
