So I've got my mr heater hung, and my roof is on. Before the roofers roofed, I figured out where I wanted the vent to go through the roof, so they put the flashing up for me, now all I have to do is put the pipe in and hook it up. I've got an 8/12 roof, so my vent needs to be a crazy 6 plus feet tall past the roof to clear all points within 10' of it!!! bleh. Unfortunately, I just realized that the overhead power line runs over the garage right in the area where the vent will be. If I put in a vent that was an imaginary 20' tall, it would probably clear the side of the power line by 1-1.5 feet. However i think the top of the vent will probably be about 2' away from the power line, and 1-1.5 ' to the side. Can anyone tell me what the "code" distance would be from the overhead power to the vent, both vertically and horizontally???
