Simple venting confi gurations
See graph to determine the required vertical rise V
T
for the
required horizontal run H
T
.
For vent confi gurations requiring more than one 45º and one
90° elbow , the following formulas apply:
V

1 + 1.5 = 2.5 ft
H

= 6 + 2 = 8 ft

O
= .03(one 45º elbow + three 90º elbow - 135º)
= .03(45 + 90 + 90 + 90 - 135) = 5.4 ft

13.4 > 7.5
Since this formula is not met, this vent confi guration is
unacceptable.

Since only formula 2 is met, this vent confi guration
is unacceptable and a new fi replace location or vent
confi guration will need to be established to satisfy both
formulas.

Since both formulas are met, this vent confi guration is
acceptable.
