Horizontal Venting - General Venting Information

1. The minimum horizontal vent length is 3'.

2. If possible, do not terminate the horizontal vent through a wall that is exposed to prevailing wind.  Exposure to excessive
   winds can affect unit performance.

3. Vent termination must be free from obstructions and at least 12" above ground level and maximum snow height.

4. Do not terminate vent directly below roof eaves or above a walkway, or any other area where condensate dripping may be
   troublesome and may cause some staining.  Avoid windows where steam may cause fogging or ice buildup.

5. When horizontally vented, minimum clearance for termination from any door, window, gravity air inlet, gas or electric meter,
   regulators, and relief equipment is 4'.  In Canada, termination is 6'.

6. Vent termination must be a minimum of 4' below or 4 horizontally from any soffit vent of under-eave on a Mr.Heater or 3' on a Reznor.

7. Vent must be a minimum of 6' from an inside corner formed by 2 exterior walls.  If possible, leave a 10' clearance.

8. Vent termination must be a minimum of 10' from any forced air inlet (includes fresh air inlet to other appliances, such as a dryer)

9. When termination is routed through an exterior combustible wall the vent must be supported using a listed clearance thimble.

10. For horizontal venting, the vent pipe shall be supported with hangers no more the 3' apart to prevent movement after installation.
