Vent Information 
A.  Venting Termination Minimum Requirements
NOTICE:
Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation.  
•  It is recommended that at least 60 inches (1.52m) of vertical 
pipe be installed when appliance is vented directly through a 
wall.  This will create a natural draft, which will help prevent 
the possibility of smoke or odor venting into the home during 
a power outage. 
•  It will also keep exhaust from causing a nuisance or hazard 
by exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures.  
•  The safest and preferred venting method is to extend the 
vent vertically through the roof or above the roof.
