What is the minimum distance to maintain from a vent terminal for proper drainage?

2 feet
3 feet
4 feet
5 feet

The correct answer is: 3 feet

Maintaining the proper distance from a vent terminal is essential for ensuring that drainage does not become obstructed and that no harmful gases enter living spaces. The correct distance of 3 feet is established to minimize the risk of sewer gases and other contaminants being drawn into the building. This distance helps prevent backflow and ensures proper ventilation in drainage systems. Implementing this guideline also improves air quality within a structure and reduces the likelihood of moisture problems associated with drainage mishaps. Following these regulations protects both health and safety, making it crucial for contractors to adhere to them when designing drainage systems and positioning vent terminals.
