Horizontal vents should pass through the exterior wall. Figure 8 shows a standard horizontal vent detail.
Terminate the vent approximately 8” (203mm) or more from the wall.
Exterior vent pipe greater than 24” (610mm) should be insulated with 1/2” (13mm) insulation to prevent
moisture from freezing within the pipe and accumulating.
Size the exhaust pipe as speci fi ed in
Table 4 - Direct and Non-Direct Vent
Lengths
. This table lists the maximum
allowable length of pipe with respect to
the number of 90° elbows used. For the
purposes of this calculation, one 90°
elbow is equivalent to two 45° elbows.
Avoid locating the terminal in locations
where dripping condensate may cause
problems such as sidewalks, patios,
above planters, near windows where
exhaust gases may cause fogging, etc.
Avoid locating the termination too close
to shrubs and other vegetation. The
condensate may stunt or kill them.
EQUIVALENTS
Short Radius Elbow = 7 ft (2.13m)
Standard Radius Elbow = 5 ft (1.52m)
Long Radius Elbow = 3 ft (0.91m)
45 Degree Elbow = 2.5 ft (0.76m)
Vent lengths that require more than
6-90° elbows, add listed equivalents
for every elbow up to the maximum
allowable vent length.
9.1 VENT TERMINATION
H14.0
Size the combustion air and exhaust piping in accordance
with Table 4. When calculating allowable vent lengths, be
sure to count all termination
fi ttings in addition to counting the
concentric vent as a straight pipe.
Take the building orientation and the presence of other
buildings or other nearby structures into consideration
when planning the venting system location. Certain
external structures could create air turbulence around the
vent termination leading to downdrafts and similar venting
problems. In windy and hill locations, roof venting may improve
operations. Maximum venting length is based on 30 mph
(48 km) winds, areas where higher gusts are dominant it is
suggested to shorten the horizontal vent length.
The vent and combustion air intake shall be installed so that
both are located in the same wind pressure zone.
