Simple venting configurations.
For vent configurations requiring more than two 90° elbows (top exit) or one 90° elbow (rear exit), the following
formulas apply:
Formula 1: H < 3 V
T T
Formula 2: H + V < 40 feet (12.2m)
T T
Example:
V = 2 FT (0.6m)
1
V = 1 FT (0.3m)
2
V = 1.5 FT (0.5m)
3
V = V + V + V = 2FT (0.6m) + 1FT (0.3m) + 1.5FT (0.5m) = 4.5 FT (1.4m)
T 1 2 3
H = 6 FT (1.8m)
1
H = 2 FT (0.6m)
2
H = H + H = 6FT (1.8m) + 2FT (0.6m) = 8 FT (2.4m)
R 1 2
H = .03 (four 90° elbows - 90°)
O
= .03 (360° - 90°) = 8.1 FT (2.5m)
H = H + H = 8FT (2.4m) + 8.1FT (2.5m) = 16.1FT (4.9m)
T R O
H + V = 16.1FT (4.9m) + 4.5FT (1.4m) = 20.6FT (6.3m)
T T
Formula 1: H < 3.5 V

3.5 V
T
16.1FT (4.9m) < 13.5 FT (4.1m)
Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is unacceptable.
Formula 2: H + V < 40 FT (12.2m)
T T
16.1FT (4.9m) < 13.5 (4.1m)
Since only formula 2 is met, this vent configuration is unacceptable and a new fireplace location or vent configuration will
need to be established to satisfy both formulas.
