5. On field supplied terminations for sidewall exit, exhaust
piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches (305 mm)
for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508 mm) for 3” (76 mm)
PVC beyond the outside wall. Intake piping should be
as short as possible. See Figure 44.
6. On field supplied terminations, a minimum distance
between the end of the exhaust pipe and the end of
the intake pipe without a termination elbow is 8” and a
minimum distance of 6” with a termination elbow. See
7. If intake and exhaust piping must be run up a side
wall to position above snow accumulation or other
obstructions, piping must be supported every 24”
(610 mm) as shown in Figure 44. Exhaust and
intake piping that is run up a wall is considered to
be in an unconditioned space, so piping should be
sized according to Table 7. The intake piping may be
equipped with a 90° elbow turndown. Using turndown
will add 5 feet (1.5 m) to the equivalent length of the
pipe.
8. A multiple furnace installation may use a group of up to
four terminations assembled together horizontally, as
Figure 39.
