The terminal should be located where dispersal of combustion products is not impeded and with due
regard for the damage or discoloration that might occur to building surfaces in the vicinity. In certain
weather conditions condensation may also accumulate on the outside of the air inlet pipe. Such
conditions must be considered and, where necessary, insulation of the inlet pipe may be required. In
cold and/or humid weather water vapor may condense when leaving the vent terminal.
The terminal must not be located in a place likely to cause a nuisance.
Maintain 12” of clearance above the highest anticipated snow level or grade, whichever is greater.
Please refer to your local codes for the snow level in your area.
The whole route of the vent system must be installed upwards, NOT completely nor partly downwards.
4.22.2 Minimum and Maximum Wall Thickness
The label at right, which is placed on the
unit, indicates the minimum
and maximum wall thickness through which venting is allowed to
penetrate
horizontally
. However, if venting is
vertical
, then there is no
minimum wall thickness.
4.23 Vent Pipe Sizing
The maximum length is the combined length of straight horizontal and vertical runs, and the equivalent
straight length of fittings. The required lengths for each boiler are as follows:
