Massachusetts installations only:
1. INSTALLATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS
(a) For all side wall horizontally vented gas-fueled equipment installed in
every dwelling, building or structure used in whole or in part for
residential purposes, including those owned or operated by the
Commonwealth and where the side wall exhaust vent termination is less
than seven (7) feet above finished grade in the area of the venting,
including but not limited to decks and porches, the following
requirements shall be satisfied:
When installing gas-fueled equipment with side wall flue gas routing, the
installing plumber or gas fitter shall ensure that a hard-wired carbon
monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up is installed on the
same level as the gas-fueled equipment. In addition, the installing
plumber or gas fitter shall ensure that a battery-operated or hard-wired
carbon monoxide detector with an alarm is installed on each additional
level of the dwelling, building or structure served by the gas-fueled
equipment. It shall be the responsibility of the property owner to secure
the services of qualified and licensed professionals for the installation of
hard-wired carbon monoxide detectors.
a. In the event that the side wall horizontally vented gas-fueled
equipment is installed in a crawl space or an attic, the hard-wired carbon
monoxide detector with alarm and battery back-up may be installed on
the next adjacent floor level.
b. In the event that the requirements of this section can not be met at the
time of installation, the owner shall have a period of thirty 30 days to
comply with the above requirements. The prerequisite for this is the
installation of a battery-powered carbon monoxide detector with alarm
for these 30 days.
2. PERMISSIBLE CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS
Each carbon monoxide detector as required in accordance with the
above provisions shall comply with NFPA 720 and be ANSI/UL 2034-
listed and IAS-certified.
3. SIGNAGE
A metal or plastic identification plate shall 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 shall read,
in print size no less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, "GAS VENT
DIRECTLY BELOW SIGN. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS”.
4 INSPECTION
The state or local gas inspector of the side wall horizontally vented gas-
fueled equipment shall 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)

increased but not reduced.
▶ If an external controller controls the recirculation
pump, a pump post-purge time of 5 minutes must be
ensured.
