Multiventing sidewall terminations

When two (2) or more direct vent appliances are vented near
each other, each appliance must be individually vented (see
FIG. 4-12). NEVER common vent or breach vent this appliance.
When two (2) or more direct vent appliances are vented near
each other, two (2) vent terminations may be installed as shown
in FIG. 4-12. The next two (2) terminations must be at least 36
inches (914 mm) away from the first two (2) terminations. It is
important that vent terminations be made as shown to avoid
recirculation of flue gases. Dimension A in FIG. 4-12 represents
the distance between pipes or rain shields, as touching or a
2 inch (51 mm) maximum separation.
