The chart will help you in determing proper venting
size according to the equivalent feet of pipe calcuated
above and the altitude above sea level of this installa-
tion. See Figure 13.2.
Locate the calculated equivalent feet of pipe on
the vertical left side of the chart. Move to the right
horizontally on the chart until you reach your altitude
above sea level.
If you fall below the diagonal line,  or 4 inch (76 to
102mm) pipe may be used. If it is anywhere above
the diagonal line, a 4 inch (102mm) diameter pipe is
requried.
The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as
restrictive to the ow of exhaust gases under positive
pressure as 1 foot of horizontal pipe, and a foot of
horizontal pipe is twice as restrictive as a foot of
vertical pipe.
