from the termination does not create a hazard or a nuisance.
Vent termination must be 3 feet (915 mm) above any forced air intake
within 10 feet (3 050 mm) ( fig. 31 [1], [Y
Do not extend exposed vent pipe outside the building beyond
recommended distance. Condensate could freeze and block vent pipe.
Vent should terminate at least 3 feet (915 mm) away from adjacent
walls, inside corners and 5 feet (1 525 mm) below roof overhang
( fig. 31 [X

It is not recommended to terminate vent above any door or window,
condensate can freeze causing ice formations.
Do not use chimney as a raceway if another boiler or fireplace is vented
into or through chimney.
All PVC/CPVC vent pipes must be glued, except for the flue gas adapter-
pipe connection.
The exhaust pipe must be properly supported and
pitched a minimum of ¼ inch (6.35 mm) per foot back to
the boiler. This allows the condensate to properly drain.
NOTICE: Damage of 2 inch PVC pipes.
▶ For ZBR42-3A and ZWB42-3A use 2 inch CPVC-pipes
or 3 inch pipes.
