Harmonization of venting terminology : a report / submitted by: Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Research Division; submitted by: Buchan, Lawton, Parent Ltd.: NH17-343/1995E-PDF

"The purpose of this project was to gather together all of the terms used in venting codes and standards and compare them, then suggest harmonized terms and definitions that could/should be used by all organizations that define requirements on the removal of combustion products from buildings, to avoid ambiguity or misleading the reader. Present usage has one venting term meaning different things or processes in different documents, and one part or process can be called by several names/terms. In some cases there were problems in discriminating between venting of combustion gases and ventilation of spaces. It is a confusing situation, especially for those who work with different fuels, when this confusion is at its greatest"--Executive summary.
