Note: Maximum equivalent length may vary between
manufacturers.
C. Vent Termination
• Do not include termination for equivalent length
calculations.
• Terminate combustion air and vent pipes with fittings or
concentric vent kit.
Use horizontal pipe for vent and 90° elbow for
combustion air termination when using fittings.
• Separate vent terminal from air inlet terminal to prevent
flue gas recirculation. If T-Terminal is used on flue pipe
at sidewall, air inlet terminal shall be at least 36" or more
away from vent terminal.
• Locate combustion air termination as far as possible from
swimming pool, swimming pool pump house, and other
sources of airborne chlorine.
• Locate combustion air intake and vent terminals as
