Multiple-unit, concentric wall 
terminals: Space each concentric 
wall terminal at least 1 ft (30 cm) 
away from each other, no matter 
the orientation. A concentric wall 
terminal must also be at least 2 ft 
(61 cm) away from an inside corner.  
If the adjacent wall is less than 2 
ft (61 cm) of length, the minimum 
required distance away from the 
inside corner will be equal to the 
length of that adjacent wall.
Concentric wall terminals 
should be at least 2 ft (61 
cm) away from an opposite 
surface/wall. Do not place the 
termination directly in front of 
an opening into a building.
Concentric wall 
terminals should be at 
least 3 ft (91 cm) away 
from a ventilated or 
unventilated soffit.

Improper installation can result in carbon monoxide poisoning or death. Follow all local 
and national codes in regards to proper termination clearances. In the absence of such 
codes, the clearances below can be used as guidelines. Local codes supersede these 
guidelines.
WARNING
Canadian requirements differ from the guidelines in this section. In Canada, follow 
the requirements of B149.1 (Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, current 
edition) as well as local and provincial codes. Contact your local code enforcement 
agency for direction.
