The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall
installation is three (3).
If a 90° elbow is fitted directly on top of the fireplace
flange, the maximum horizontal vent run before the
termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914 mm). (Fig.
27)

If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run
(level height maintained) the maximum horizontal
vent length is reduced by 36” (914 mm). (Fig. 27)
This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to
increase or redirect a vertical rise. (Fig. 28, 29)
Example: According to the vent graph (Page 15) the
maximum horizontal vent length in a system with a 7.5’
(2.3 m) vertical rise is 20’ (6 m) and if a 90° elbow is
required in the horizontal vent it must be reduced to 17’
(5.2 m). In Figure 29 Dimension A plus B must not be
greater than 17’ (5.2 m).

In Figure 28 & 29, dimension A plus B must not be

The maximum number of 45° elbows permitted per
side wall installation is two (2). These elbows can be
installed in either the vertical or horizontal run.
For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run,
the length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by
18” (45 cm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows
are installed on the vertical part of the vent system.
The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system
is 270°. (Fig. 30)
Example:
Elbow 1 = 90°
Elbow 2 = 45°
Elbow 3 = 45°
Elbow 4 = 90°
Total angular variation = 270°
