**a vent shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located between two single family dwellings and serves both dwellings.

***only permitted if veranda, porch, deck or balcony is fully open on a minimum of 2 sides beneath the floor, or meets Note 2.

Note 1: On private property where termination is less than 2.1 m above a sidewalk, driveway, deck, porch, veranda or balcony, use of a listed cap shield is suggested. (See vents components page)

Note 2: Termination in a covered alcove space (spaces open only on one side and with an overhang) are permitted with the dimensions specified for vinyl or non-vinyl siding and soffits. 1. There must be .91 m minimum between termination caps. 2. All mechanical air intakes within 3 m of a termination cap must be a minimum of .91 m below the termination cap. 3. All gravity air intakes within .91 m of a termination cap must be a minimum of .30 m below the termination cap.

Note 3: Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.

Note 4: Termination caps may be hot. Consider their proximity to doors or other traffic areas.

Note 5: Location of the vent termination must not interfere with access to the electrical service.

Vent system termination is NOT permitted in screened porches.
