configuration vertically through the roof the following
instructions must be followed:
The intake air and vent pipes must penetrate the same side
of the roof as shown in Figure 21 on page 25.
The intake air and vent terminations must be oriented facing
downward and in the same direction as shown in Figure 21
The intake air and vent terminations must have a minimum
separation of 24” (61 cm) measured on center line as shown
in Figure 21 on page 25. in colder climates this separation
should be increased to at least 48 inches (122 cm).
The bottom edge of the intake air and vent terminations
must be a minimum of 12 inches (30 cm), 18 inches (45 cm)
in Canada, above the average or expected snow level as
shown in Figure 19 and Figure 21 on page 25.

When the intake air and/or vent piping from multiple
water heaters will terminate in the same location the vent
terminations can be grouped together in close proximity 0
inches/touching. intake air terminations can also be grouped
together in close proximity 0 inches/touching.
The distance between the closest vent and intake air
terminations must be a minimum of 24 inches (61 cm) as
shown in Figure 21. in colder climates this separation should
be increased to at least 48 inches (122 cm).
