HORIZONTAL TERMINATION
See graph to determine the required
vertical rise V
T
for the required hori-
zontal run H
T
.
For vent confi gurations requiring more than one 45º and 90° elbow
the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: H
T
< 4.2 V
T
Formula 2: H
T
+ V
T
< 24.75 feet

19.1 < 24.75
Since both formulas are met, this vent confi guration is ac-
ceptable.
