Use this chart to
compute maximum
permissable lengths
for duct runs to
outdoors.
Note: Do not exceed maximum
permissable equivalent lengths!
Maximum duct length:
100 foot for range hoods.
Flexible ducting:
If flexible metal
ducting is used, all
the equivalent feet
values in the table
should be doubled.
The flexible metal
duct should be
straight and smooth
and extended as
much as possible.
Do NOT use flexible
plastic ducting.
Note: Any home ventilation
system, such as a ventilation
hood, may interrupt the proper
flow of combustion air and
exhaust required by fireplaces,
gas furnaces, gas water heaters
and other naturally vented
systems. To minimize the chance
of interruption of such naturally
vented systems, follow the heating
equipment manufacturer’s
guidelines and safety standards
such as those published by NFPA
and ASHRAE.

* Actual length of straight duct plus duct fitting
equivalent. Equivalent length of duct pieces are based
on actual tests conducted by GE Evaluation Engineer-
ing and reflect requirements for good venting
performance with any ventilation hood.
