Details of Intake and Exhaust Piping
Terminations for Direct Vent Installations
NOTE:
In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken
from outdoors and flue gases are discharged to outdoors.
NOTE:
Flue gas may be slightly acidic and may adversely
affect some building materials. If any vent termination is
used and the flue gasses may impinge on the building
material, a corrosion-resistant shield (minimum 24 inches
square) should be used to protect the wall surface. If the
optional tee is used, the protective shield is recommended.
The shield should be constructed using wood, plastic,
sheet metal or other suitable material. All seams, joints,
cracks, etc. in the affected area should be sealed using an
appropriate sealant. See Figure 42.
Intake and exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally
through an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In
attic or closet installations, vertical termination through the
roof is preferred. Figure 34 through Figure 41 show typical
terminations.
1. Intake and exhaust terminations are not required to be
in the same pressure zone. You may exit the intake on
one side of the structure and the exhaust on another
side (Figure 35). You may exit the exhaust out the roof
and the intake out the side of the structure (Figure 36).
2. Intake and exhaust pipes should be placed as close
together as possible at termination end (refer to
illustrations). Minimum separation is 3” (76mm) on roof
terminations and 6” (152mm) on side wall terminations.
NOTE:
When venting in different pressure zones,
the maximum separation requirement of intake and
exhaust pipe DOES NOT apply.
3. On roof terminations, the intake piping should terminate
straight down using two 90° elbows (see Figure 34).
4. Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. A reducer may be required on the exhaust
piping at the point where it exits the structure to
improve the velocity of exhaust away from the intake
NOTE:
Care must be taken to avoid recirculation of
exhaust back into intake pipe.
5. On field-supplied terminations for side wall exit,
exhaust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches
(305mm) for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508mm) for 3”
(76mm) PVC beyond the outside wall. Intake piping
should be as short as possible. See Figure 42.
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
