A 1 inch (25 mm) clearance to combustibles must be maintained
around any vertical vent pipe. Around a horizontal vent pipe, the
clearance to combustibles should be 2 inches (50 mm) for rigid &
3 inches (86 mm) for ex above, and 1 inches (38 mm) on the
sides and bottom. When combustible materials are directly above
a 90° elbow & above the unit, 8 inches (203 mm) of clearance are
necessary; when not the elbow is not above the unit, 3 inches (76
mm) for rigid pipe & 3 inches (86 mm) for ex pipe. A 10 inches
(250 mm) x 10 inches (250 mm) frame (see Figure 35) will assure
the proper support and spacing for a vent pipe through the ceiling
or as it passes through the wall [up to 8 inches (203mm) for ex
pipe]. Installations in Canada require that a wall thimble be used for
passing through walls and ceilings. All sealing and vapour barriers
must comply with local building codes.
When planning an installation, it is necessary to select the
proper length of vent pipe for the particular requirements. The
conguration of the venting pipes depends on the locations of walls,
ceilings and studs. However, the pipes cannot be of arbitrary length
and arrangement. Because the length of the vertical and horizontal
sections dramatically affects the burning efciency of the replace,
