vent termination requirements
1. Do not terminate the vent in any enclosed or semi-enclosed
areas such as a carport, garage, attic, crawlspace, narrow
walkway, closely fenced area, under a sundeck or porch,
or any location that can build up a concentration of fumes
such as stairwells, covered breezeway, etc.
2. Vent surfaces can become hot enough to cause burns if
touched. Non-combustible shielding or guards may be
required.
3. Termination must exhaust above the inlet elevation. It is
recommended that at least five feet of vertical pipe be
installed outside when the stove is vented directly through
a wall. This will create a natural draft to prevent the pos
-
sibility of smoke or odor during appliance shut down or
power failure and avoid exposing people or shrubs to
high temperatures.
4. The vent should terminate no less than four feet below,
no less than four feet horizontally from, and no less than
one foot above doors and windows, or gravity/ventilation
air inlets into the building.
5. The distance between the bottom of termination and grade
should be a minimum of 12” (305mm). The distance be
-
tween the bottom of the termination and a public walkway
should be a minimum of seven feet.
6. Locate the vent termination at least two feet away from
combustible materials such as shrubs, plants, grass,
fences, roof overhangs, and adjacent buildings.
