Mike Lamb Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 12.9.4 Through-the-wall vents for Category II and Category IV appliances and noncategorized condensing appliances shall not terminate over public walkways ... So installing the vent above a private walkway would be okay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 That's been my interpretation. Any discharge of anything over, into, or onto a public way isn't allowed. This includes roof drainage.....can't discharge garage roof gutters into the alley.....which is done on nearly every house in Chicago.

Eric B Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 So installing the vent above a private walkway would be okay? I think that I would consider the possibility of the condensate freezing on the walkway causing someone to slip and fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
