Termination of type-B vent shall be minimum 4 feet from the property line.Verify approved location with staff at the Planning counter. Shed clearance to side property line is two feet, six inches and three feet to rear property line.Typical Installation of Water Heater in Metal Shed Metallic gas piping must withstand 10 psi air pressure for at least 15 minutes without leaking.Water piping must withstand the street main pressure or 50 psi pounds per square inch (psi) of air pressure without leaking.No section shall be tested with less than a 10-foot head of water. Drainage, and vent systems must be tested by filling with water and must be watertight.Building sewers shall be tested by plugging the end of the building sewer at its point of connection with the public sewer and completely filling the building sewer with water from the lowest to the highest point.All tests must be witnessed by the inspector.

The distance from the meter to the most remote outlet plus the gas demand of the appliance served determines the size of each section of gas piping system.Unions for gas pipe are only permitted at an exposed fixture appliance or equipment connection and in exposed exterior locations immediately on the discharge side of a building shut off valve.Gas piping shall not be installed in the ground unless it is protected against corrosion by a machine applied coating or wrapping.The gas pipe can be attached to the raised wood floor joists minimum 6” above grade. Gas piping may not be installed underneath the raised floor of a building when the gas line is in the ground or under/within a concrete floor slab of a building.
