Side Wall Vent Terminal Installation
Important: When terminating the vent on a side wall, the
following specifi cations pertaining to terminal location must
be followed (see Figure 22).
1. The air intake terminal and the exhaust vent terminal
must terminate on the same exterior wall.
2. The vertical centerline of the air intake terminal must
be located at a minimum of 8 in. and not more than
24 in. from the vertical centerline of the exhaust vent
terminal.
3. The horizontal centerline of the air intake terminal may
not be located more than 4 in. below the horizontal
centerline of the exhaust vent terminal.
4. To avoid exhaust recirculation, the air intake terminal
may be rotated away from the exhaust vent terminal
(see Figure 22).

Important: When terminating the vents through a roof,
the following specifi cations pertaining to terminal location
must be followed (see Figure 23).
1. The air intake termination and the exhaust vent
termination shall extend above anticipated snow level
or at least 18 in. above the roof.
2. Must provide proper support for all pipes protruding
through roof.
3. The vertical roof terminations should be sealed with a
