Simple venting confi guration (only one 45° and 90°
elbow)
For vent confi gurations requiring more than one 45° elbow and 90° elbow, the following formulas
apply:
Formula 1: H
< V
T
Formula 2: H
+ V
T
Example:
= 8 FT (2.4m)

= 8 FT (2.4m)

= H
+ H
= 4.5 FT (1.4m) + 2.7 FT (0.8m) = 7.2 FT (2.2m)

Formula 1:
H
7.2 FT (2.2m) < 8 FT (2.4m)
Formula 2:
H
15.2 FT (4.6m) < 40 FT (12.2m)
Since both formulas are met, this vent confi guration is acceptable.
