Lochinvar CREST 2.5 - Manual (Page 22)

Termination and fittings
1. The air termination must be oriented at least 12 inches
above grade or snow line as shown in FIG. 4-1, page
21.
2. Maintain the required dimensions of the finished
termination piping as shown in FIG. 4-1, page 21.
3. Do not extend exposed vent pipe outside of the
