Maintain clearances as shown in FIG.’s 4-1A thru 4-3B,
pages 21 and 23. Also maintain the following:
a.

Vent must terminate:
• At least 6 feet from adjacent walls.
• No closer than 12 inches below roof overhang.
• At least 7 feet above any public walkway.
• At least 3 feet above any forced air intake within

10 feet.

• No closer than 12 inches below or horizontally

from any door or window or any other gravity air
inlet.

b.

Air inlet must terminate at least 12 inches above
grade or snow line; at least 12 inches below the vent
termination; and the vent pipe must not extend
more than 24 inches vertically outside the building
as shown in FIG. 4-1B.

c.

Do not terminate closer than 4 feet horizontally
from any electric meter, gas meter, regulator, relief
valve, or other equipment. Never terminate above or
below any of these within 4 feet horizontally.

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