Notes:
1 In accordance with the current CAN/CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.

3 NOTE: This table is based upon National codes for gas appliances, and are provided as a reference.
Refer to Local codes which may supersede these standards and/or recommendations.
4 For clearances not specified in ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or CAN/CSA B 149.1, clearances shall be in accordance with local installation codes and the requirements
of the gas supplier and the manufacturer's installation instructions.
5 When locating vent terminations, consideration must be given to prevailing winds, location, and other conditions which may cause recirculation of the combustion
products of adjacent vents. Recirculation can cause poor combustion, inlet condensate problems, vent termination icing, and/or and accelerated corrosion of the
heat exchangers.
6 Design and position vent outlets to avoid ice build-up on and moisture damage to surrounding surfaces.
7 The vent for this appliance shall not terminate:
a. Near soffit vents of crawl space vents or other areas where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance or hazard or property damage; or
b. Where condensate vapor could cause damage or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment.
8 Avoid venting under a deck or large overhang. Recirculation could occur and cause performance or system problems. Ice build-up may occur.
