Requirements for Terminating the Venting
!
Venting terminals must not be recessed into a wall
or siding.
Only PL vent pipe wall pass-through and fire stops
should be used when venting through combustible
materials.
Always take into consideration the effect the prevailing
wind direction or other wind currents will cause with
flyash and /or smoke when placing the termination.
In addition, the following must be observed:
A. The clearance above grade must be a minimum of 12".
B. The clearance to a window or door that may be opened must
be a minimum of 48" to the side and 48" below the window/
door, and 12" above the window/door. (with outside air
installed, 9" to side and below)
C. A 12" clearance to a permanently closed window is
recommended to prevent condensation on the window.
D. The vertical clearance to a ventilated soffit located above the
terminal within a horizontal distance of 2 feet (60 cm) from the
center-line of the terminal must be a minimum of 18".
E. The clearance to an unventilated soffit must be a minimum of
12".
F. The clearance to an outside corner is 11" from center of pipe.
G. The clearance to an inside corner is 12".
