Horizontal Termination
Any horizontal termination must fall within the
shaded portion of the vent window graph illustrated
in figs. 9 or 11. For Snorkel Terminations, see below.
Any horizontal termination except a snorkel termination,
must include:
1) Minimum rise of 2 ft.
2) Minimum horizontal run of 12 in. when vertical
run is less than 8 ft.
2) Maximum rise of 35 ft.
3) Maximum horizontal run of 27 ft.
4) No more than four 45° or two 90° Elbows
Follow all termination clearance guidelines as speci-
fied in fig. 19.
The horizontal termination cap must maintain a 3"
clearance to any overhead combustible projections
2 1/2" or less. It must also maintain 12" clearance
from projections exceeding 2 1/2". See fig. 20.
Wall Cut-out Opening: A minimum 10" X 10" (250 mm x
250 mm) square hole is required for proper pipe clear-
ances through a combustible wall. Use a listed wall
thimble for the wall penetration.
DO NOT FILL AIR SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF INSULATION.
Any horizontal run of vent must have a 1/4" rise for
every foot of run toward the termination cap. NEVER
ALLOW THE VENTING TO RUN DOWNWARD FROM
STOVE TO TERMINATION; DOWNWARD VENT RUNS
TRAP HEAT AND CAUSE HIGH TEMPERATURES TO
DEVELOP WITHIN THE VENT THAT COULD START A
FIRE.
Install a Vinyl Siding Standoff between the vent
termination and an exterior wall covered by vinyl
siding material to prevent potential heat damage to
the siding.
Do not recess the termination cap into a wall or
siding.
