BELOW GRADE INSTALLATIONS
When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal
clearances of 12 inches (305mm) above grade level a starter
vent kit is recommended. It allows installation depth of down
to 7 inches (178mm) below grade level. The 7 inches is
measured from the centre of the horizontal vent pipe as it
penetrates through the wall.
A
If venting system is installed below ground, we
recommend a window well with adequate and
proper drainage.
Ensure sidewall venting clearances are observed.
