Continued from page 11.
From Top Surface: 2" (51 mm)
From Sides: 1" (25 mm)
DO NOT FILL AIR SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF
INSULATION.

Any horizontal run of vent must be level or have a
1/4 in. rise for every foot of run toward the termination cap.
NEVER ALLOW THE VENTING TO RUN DOWNWARD
FROM STOVE TO TERMINATION; A DOWNWARD
VENT RUN TRAPS HEAT AND CREATES A FIRE
HAZARD.

The horizontal termination cap must maintain a 3" clearance
to any overhead combustible projections
2 1/2" or less. It must also maintain 12" clearance from
projections exceeding 2 1/2". See fig. 6.11.

A direct vent terminal may not be recessed into a wall or
siding.


Install a Vinyl Siding Standoff (M&G Dura-Vent #950)
between the vent termination and an exterior wall covered by
vinyl siding material to prevent potential heat damage to the
siding.

SNORKEL TERMINATION:
• HORIZONTAL RUN MUST NOT EXCEED 2 FEET (61
CM).
A 14" (356mm) or 36" (914mm) snorkel termination
is approved in conformance with the vent rise/run and
termination clearance specifications published in this manual.
See figs. 6.9 – 6.10.
The snorkel termination must comply with grade and building
clearance requirements per local and national building codes.
