As specified in CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes. Note: Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
** A vent must not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway, which is located between two single-family dwellings
and serves both dwellings.
*** Only permitted if veranda, porch, deck, or balcony is fully open on a minimum of two sides beneath the floor.
Always maintain minimum clearances around vent systems. The minimum clearances to
combustibles for horizontal vent pipe are 3" at the top and 1" at the sides and bottom of
the vent system until the pipe penetrates the nearest vertical wall. A 1" minimum clearance
all around the pipe must be maintained. Do not pack the open air spaces with insulation
or other materials. This could cause high temperatures and may present a fire hazard.
