Section 3-2:
Installing a Roof Mounted Direct Vent
Termination (PVTK-1)
This section applies to installations where the direct vent termi-
nation 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 9 - 9c).
For a detailed diagram of allowed termination locations,
„
see Appendix A.
Termination location must be a minimum 6' from a me-
„
chanical air inlet.
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.
