For that particular model..

Both the water heater and the furnace were put in 1993. I doubt they had the book, and the furnace was a heil. The WH a bradford white.

SO lets see if the magic of the internet will find some results.

It's a good rule but here is an example from a Heatilator install manual.

So when your rule doesn't fit you may have to refer to the manufacturers instructions or any superseding local code requirements.

Thanks ,all manufacture recommendations aside , seems way to close for me to the vertical wall,and to low,if within 8 feet of the vertical wall,must extend a min of 2 feet above the roof placed over the wall,good pic though.
