The shaded area within the lines represents acceptable values

For vent confi gurations requiring more than one 45º and one 90°
elbow the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: HT < VT
Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet

Formula 2: H

25.9 < 40
Since both formulas are met, this vent confi guration is ac-
ceptable.
See graph to determine the required vertical
rise V
T
for the required horizontal run H
