As much as possible avoid long horizontal runs of vent pipe and too many elbows. If installation requires horizontal non-vertical runs, the vent pipe must have a minimumof 1/4 inch per foot rise and should be supported at not less than five foot intervals. Plumbers tape, crisscrossed, will serve to space both horizontal and vertical piping. Gas vents supported only by the flashing and extending above the roof more than five feet should be securely guyed or braced to withstand snow and wind loads. We recommend use of insulated vent pipe spacer through the roofs and walls.

For protection against rain or blockage by snow, the vent pipe must terminate with a vent cap which complies with the local codes or, in the absence of such codes, to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1.

The discharge opening must be a minimum of two feet vertically from the roof surface and at least two feet higher than any part of the building within ten feet. Vent stack shall be at least five feet in vertical height above the draft hood outlet. The vent cap location shall have a minimum clearance of 4 feet horizontally from, and in no case above or below, unless a 4-foot horizontal distance is maintained, from electric meters, gas meters, regula- tors and relief equipment.

The weight of the vent stack or chimney must not rest on heater draft hood. Support must be provided in compliance with applicable codes. The heater top and draft hood must be readily removable for maintenance and inspection. Vent pipe should be adequately sup- ported to maintain proper clearances from combustible constructions.

Type “B” double wall or equivalent vent pipe is recommended. However single wall metal vent pipe may be used as specified in the latest edition of the National Flue Gas Code ANSI Z 223.1.

At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the following steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remain- ing connected to the common venting system are not in operation.

(a)Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.

(b)Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and deter- mine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.

(c)Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appliance remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the build- ing. Turn on clothes dryers and any appli- ance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fire place dampers.

(d)Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate continuously.

(e)Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or pipe.

(f)After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.

(g)Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation conforms with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1 When re-sizing any portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should be re-sized to approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate tables in part 11 of national Fuel Gas Code,
