The first step is to determine where the vent pipe will terminate. See
Figures 15, 20 and 21. The vent may terminate through a sidewall
as shown in Figure 20 or through the roof as shown in Figure 21.
The vent system must terminate so that proper clearances are
maintained as cited in local codes or the current edition of the Natural
Gas and Propane Installation Code (CAN/CSA-B149.1).
Instructions on proper installation through a sidewall are provided

Plan the vent system layout so that proper clearances are maintained
from plumbing and wiring.
Vent pipes serving power vented appliances are classified by building
codes as "vent connectors". Required clearances from combustible
materials must be provided in accordance with information in
this manual under LOCATING THE NEW WATER HEATER and
INSTALLING THE WATER HEATER, and with the Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code (CSN/CSA-B149.1) and local codes.
