8.3Remote Combustion Air Cap

A UL Listed air intake vent termination cap MUST be attached to the remote combustion air vent termination to adequately protect the combustion air inlet from wind and weather. A UL Listed air intake termination cap is available from PVI Industries and may have shipped with the water heater as a purchased option.

8.4Vertical or Horizontal Remote Air Duct Termination

Air inlet and exhaust vents should terminate in the same wind pressure area whenever possible.

Air inlet must be located no less than 3 feet (0.91m) below the exhaust terminal if they are within 10 feet (3.05 m) of each other.

If terminating through the roof, the air inlet must terminate at least 12 inches (0.3 m) above roof level and at least 12 inches (0.3 m) above snow levels.

If terminating through a sidewall, the air inlet must terminate at least 12 inches (0.3 m) above grade and/or at least 12 inches (0.3 m) above normal snow levels.
