SIGNAGE A metal or plastic identification plate should be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line with the exhaust vent terminal for the horizontally vented gas fueled heating appliance or equipment. The sign should read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, “GAS VENT DIRECTLY

BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.”

INSPECTION The state or local gas inspector of the side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment should not approve the installation unless, upon inspection, the inspector observes carbon monoxide detectors and signage installed in accordance with the provisions of 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a) 1 through 4.

2.Product Approved side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment installed in a room or structure separate from the dwelling, building, or structure used in whole or in part for residential purposes.

MANUFACTURER REQUIREMENTS - GAS EQUIPMENT VENTING SYSTEM PROVIDED When the manufacturer of Product Approved side wall horizontally vented gas equipment provides a venting system design or venting system components with the equipment, the instructions provided by the manufacturer for installation of the equipment and the venting system should include:

1.Detailed instructions for the installation of the venting system design or the venting system components; and

2.A complete parts list for the venting system design or venting system.

1.The referenced “special venting system” instructions should be included with the appliance or equipment installation instructions; and

2.The “special venting systems” should be Product Approved by the Board, and the instructions for that system should include a parts list and detailed installation instructions.

A copy of all installation instructions for all Product Approved side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment, all venting instructions, all parts lists for venting instructions, and/or all venting design instructions should remain with the appliance or equipment at the completion of the installation.
