PELLET VENT TERMINATION CLEARANCE
The stove vent must terminate on the outside of the building. Horizontal terminations must extend a
minimum of 12" from the wall. Vertical terminations must protrude a minimum of 24" from the roof
surface.
In addition, all clearances listed below must be met. SEE FIGURE 8
Must have an approved cap (to prevent water from entering) or a 45 degree downturn with rodent
screen.
If the termination is located on a windy side of the house, we suggest using an approved house shield
to prevent soot from building up on the side of the house.
A vent must not be located where it may become plugged by snow or other material.
