RECOMMENDED HEIGHTS FOR
WOODSTOVE FLUE
Simple rules on draft. See Table 1.
1) At sea level minimum height is 12' (3.7m)
straight.
2) Add the following vertical height to compen-
sate for:
45 deg. elbow = 1 ft. (.3m)
90 deg. elbow = 2 ft. (.6m)
"T" = 3 ft. (.9m)
Each foot of horizontal run = 2 ft. (.6m)
3) Add 4% overall for each 1000' (3.5m) above
sea level.
Example: a)
1-1/2 ft. of horizontal run = 3 ft. (.9m)
one "T" = 3 ft. (.9m)
Total Addition (at sea level) = 6 ft. (1.8m)
Example: b)
One 90 deg. elbow = 2 ft. (.6m)
2 ft. of horizontal run = 4 ft. (1.2m)
one "T" = 3 ft. (.9m)
Total Addition (at sea level) = 9 ft. (2.7m)
