VENTING INSTALLATION Installation for Vertical Termination VENTING INSTALLATION Continued INSTALLATION FOR VERTICAL TERMINATION NOTICE: Use rigid pipe only. Flex venting is not to be used with a vertical termination. 1. Determine the route your vertical venting will take. If ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other framing will obstruct the venting system, consider an offset (see Figure 32) to avoid cutting load bearing members. - Page 17 VENTING INSTALLATION Continued 6. Continue to add pipe sections until the height of the vent cap meets the minimum building code requirements described in Figure 21 on page 11. Note : You must increase vent height for steep roof pitches. Nearby trees, adjoining rooflines, steep pitched roofs, and other similar factors may cause poor draft or down-drafting in high winds.
