Example: If 20 feet total (H+H

1

)

horizontal vent run is needed,

then 4 feet minimum of (V) verti-

cal vent will be required.

This table shows a 1(V) to 5(H)

ratio. For every 1 foot of (V)

vertical, you are allowed 5 feet

of (H+H

1

) horizontal run up to

a maximum total horizontal run

of 20 feet.

An elbow is acceptable as 1 foot

of vertical rise except where

an elbow is the only vertical

component in the system. See

Figure 38.

TERMINATION SYSTEM
Figure 32 (Page 19), and Figures 35 to 40
on

Pages 21 to 23 and their associated Horizontal

Vent Table which illustrate the various horizontal

venting configurations that are possible for use

with these appliances. Secure Vent pipe ap-

plications are shown in these figures;
Secure Flex pipe may also be used. A Horizontal

Vent Table summarizes each system’s minimum

and maximum vertical and horizontal length

values that can be used to design and install the

vent components in a variety of applications.

Both of these horizontal vent systems terminate

through an outside wall. Building Codes limit or

prohibit terminating in specific areas. See Fig-

ures 5 and 6 on Pages 6 and 7 for location

guidelines.
Secure Vent SV4.5 direct-vent system compo-

nents are unitized concentric pipe components

featuring positive twist lock connection, (refer

to Figure 21 on Page 14). All of the appli-

ances covered in this document are fitted with

collars having locking inclined channels. The

dimpled end of the vent components fit over

the appliance collar to create the positive twist

lock connection.

A. Plan the vent run -

Analyze the vent routing and determine the

types and quantities of sections required

4-1/2" (114 mm), 10-1/2" (267 mm), 22-1/2"

(572 mm), 34-1/2" (876 mm) and 46-1/2" (1181

mm) net section lengths are available. It is

recommended that you plan the vent lengths

so that a joint does not occur at the intersection

of ceiling or roof joists. Make allowances for

elbows as indicated in Figure 25 (Page 15).
Maintain a minimum 1" (25 mm) clearance

to combustibles on the vertical sections.

Clearances for the horizontal runs are; 3" (76

mm) on top, 1" (25 mm) on sides, and 1" (25

mm) at the bottom.
