Chapter 14,section 1404.4 (Location of vent terminal) Of the Standard Plumbing Code reads," No vent terminal from a drainage system shall be located directly beneath any, door, window, or any other ventilating opening of the building or of a adjacent building, nor shall any such vent terminal be within 10 feet horizontally of such opening unless it is at least 2-feet above the top of such opening." This should answer your question. Good luck, Tom

I attempt to be polite when answering questions but sometimers it's not all that easy when the feedback sounds like this.

ANSW to vent stack
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I asked for the answer to a legitimate question. I DIDN'T ask for your attitude. What part of that do YOU not understand?
I can't DUMB this down any more then I have already. I posted the regulations direct from my code book twice already and here you are again, asking the same question. I'll do it one last time;
Chapter 14,section 1404.4 (Location of vent terminal) Of the Standard Plumbing Code reads," No vent terminal from a drainage system shall be located directly beneath any, door, window, or any other ventilating opening of the building or of a adjacent building, nor shall any such vent terminal be within 10 feet horizontally of such opening unless it is at least 2-feet above the top of such opening."
Now if that doesn't make sense perhaps you can get a fith grader to explain it to you. This should conclude our discourse. Tom

2 feet minimum
Isn't that exactly what I've been saying in my last three posts?
