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.
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 to 9c).
Termination location must be a minimum 6' from a mechanical
„
air inlet.
Termination location must be a minimum 18" from a parapet wall.
„
For a more detailed diagram of allowed termination locations,
„
see Appendix A.
A maximum of two offsets (each offset is made up of 2-90°
„
bends) may be made.
Firestops must be installed as required by National & local codes
„
Ensure all runs are supported with a minimum of 3 supports
„
per 10' of venting.
Install all roof flashing and storm collars as shown.
