back-up may be installed on the next adjacent floor level.
In the event that the requirements of this subdivision can
not be met at the time of completion of installation, the

mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height
of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line with the exhaust
vent terminal for the horizontally vented gas fueled heating
appliance or equipment. The sign shall read, in print size no
less than one-half (1/2) inch in size,
“GAS VENT
