Maintain a minimum distance from the vent
and combustion air-inlet terminals of not
less than 1 ft. above grade or above average
snowfall whichever is greater.
Connect the vent riser assemblies to the vent
and combustion air-inlet pipes which are
extending out of the building.
Ensure that the back of the 90° elbows
are flush with the outside wall surface
and that the vent and combustion air-inlet
terminations of the vent risers are parallel
with the outside wall.
IMPORTANT: Remember to include the
additional 90° elbows and vertical height
of the vent and combustion air-inlet pipes
of the vent riser when calculating the
maximum equivalent vent and combustion
air-inlet system lengths. The maximum
equivalent vent and combustion air-inlet
system lengths must be as specified on page
13.
