When locating the vent termination, the minimum vent
clearances must be observed. (Page 10, Fig. 9)
NOTE: Local codes may require different clearances.
It is recommended that the termination not be located
within 24" (305mm) of garden sheds, fences, decks,
utility buildings or other obstructions.
Do not locate termination cap where excessive snow or
ice build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termina-
tion area after snow falls and clear to prevent accidental
blockage of venting system. When using snow blowers,
make sure snow is not directed towards vent termina-
tion area.
This appliance has a "special vent system". Check
with local codes or in the absence of same, with CSA
B149.1 installation codes in Canada, or the current
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the
USA, regarding special vent termination clearances.
