Note: In cold climate areas negative air pressure such as unbalanced heating and ventilating systems can cause reverse air flows in gas vent and chimney systems. Under extreme cold conditions this can cause freezing and damage Bosch heat exchanger during prolonged period of times when they are not in use, such as night time hours. Vent termination with back draft flapper is supplied in order to minimize outside air infiltration and risk of freezing equipment.
The approved terminal shall be so arranged for flue gases to be directed in a manner which will not jeopardize people, overheat combustible structures or enter into buildings, and that proper clearances are maintained (See Fig. 2 )
