The same rise to run ratios, as shown in the venting Figures for 90
elbows, must be followed if 45 degree elbows are used.

in a straight (no dips) and recommended to be in a slightly elevated
plane, in a direction away from the fireplace of 1/4" rise per foot (20
mm per meter) which is ideal, though rise per foot run ratios that are
smaller are acceptable all the way down to at or near level.
 The tables show a 1(V) to 5(H) ratio up to a maximum horizontal run
of 20 feet except for installations where an elbow is the only vertical
vent section in the system (see Figure 29).

Example: If 20 feet of (H) hori-
zontal vent run is needed, then
4 feet minimum of (V) vertical
vent will be required.
This table shows a 1(V) to
5(H) ratio. For every 1 foot of
vertical, you are allowed 5 feet
of (H) horizontal run up to a
maximum (H) horizontal run
of 20 feet.
