Vertical direct venting

Prepare roof penetrations

1. Air 

pipe 

penetration:

a.  Cut a hole for the air pipe.  Size the air pipe hole as 
 

close as desired to the air pipe outside diameter.

2.  Vent pipe penetration:

a.  Cut a hole for the vent pipe.  For either combustible 
 

or noncombustible construction, size the vent pipe 

 

hole with at least a 1/2 inch clearance around the 

 

vent pipe outer diameter:

 

 

•  7½ inch (178 mm) hole for 6 inch (152 mm) vent 

  

 

pipe

 

 

•  8½ inch (203 mm) hole for 7 inch (178 mm) vent 

  

 

pipe 

b.  Insert a galvanized metal thimble in the vent pipe 
 

hole (when required by local codes).

3.  Space the air and vent holes to provide the minimum 

spacing shown in FIG.’s 5-1 and 5-2.

4.  Follow all local codes for isolation of vent pipe when 

passing through floors, ceilings, and roofs.

5.  Provide flashing and sealing boots sized for the vent pipe 

and air pipe.

5.  Locate terminations so they are not likely to be damaged 

by foreign objects, such as stones or balls, or subject to 
buildup of leaves or sediment.

Vent/air termination – vertical

Follow instructions below when 
determining vent location to avoid 
possibility of severe personal injury, death 
or substantial property damage.

Determine location

Locate the vent/air terminations using the following 
guidelines:

1.  The total length of piping for vent or air must not exceed 

the limits given in the General Venting Section on page  
17 of this manual.

2.  Prepare the vent termination and the air termination 

elbow (FIG. 5-1A) by inserting bird screens. Bird screens 
should be obtained locally.

3.  The vent must terminate at least 3 feet above the highest 

place in which the vent penetrates the roof and at least     
2 feet above any part of a building within 10 horizontal 
feet.

4.  The air piping must terminate in a down-turned 180° 

return pipe no further than 2 feet from the center of the 
vent pipe.  This placement avoids recirculation of flue 
products into the combustion air stream.

5.  The vent piping must terminate in an up-turned coupling 

as shown in FIG. 5-1A.  The top of the coupling must 
be at least 1 foot above the air intake.  When the vent 
termination uses a rain cap as illustrated in FIG. 5-1B 
maintain at least 36" (914 mm) above the air inlet.  The 
air inlet pipe and vent pipe can be located in any desired 
position on the roof, but must always be no further than 
2 feet (.6 m) apart and with the vent termination at least 
1 foot for PVC and 3 feet for stainless steel, above the air 
intake.

6.  Maintain the required dimensions of the finished 

termination piping as shown in FIG. 5-1A.

7.  Do not extend exposed vent pipe outside of building 

more than shown in this document.  Condensate could 
freeze and block vent pipe.

 WARNING

 WARNING

Rooftop vent and air inlet terminations 
must terminate in the same pressure 
zone, unless vertical vent sidewall air is 
set up as shown in the General Venting - 
Vertical Vent, Sidewall Air Section.
