Default flat roof vent

Attachment 6161
Does this plumbing vent need to be higher than what is there? It's a flat roof that does not accomidate people. Thanks
Attachment 6162
Gas flex connector not allowed installation this way correct? I know there is no drip leg, but my understanding is that a flex connector can't connect directly to the unit gas valve.

Default Re: flat roof vent

Vent termination should be at least 6" above the roof or 6" above the anticipated snow level, whichever is higher.

Appliance connectors should not pass through cabinets.
