Through The Wall Venting With Low Ground Clearance:
When venting cannot exit through the wall at a height greater than or equal to 12 inches (30.5 cm) (and above
expected snow level) from the ground, then the installation must be modified as shown below (see Figure 18).
Refer to Tables 3 or 4 for maximum venting lengths using 2 inch (5.1 cm), 3 inch (7.6 cm) or 4 inch (10.2 cm)
diameter plastic pipe.

Table 4

Determining required vent length:
1. Determine the total length of straight vent pipe (in feet) required.
2. Add 5 feet (1.5 m) of venting for every 90° elbow.
3. Add 2 ½ feet (.7 m) of venting for every 45° elbow.
4. Total vent length cannot exceed “Max. Vent Length” in Table 4.

Example of Total Vent Length for EF100T199 with a power vented installation:

A 3 inch (7.6 cm) venting system has a total of six 90-degree elbows and a total straight pipe length of 55 feet (16.5
m)
.
Equivalent vent length for elbows: 6 x 5 feet (1.5 m) = 30 feet (9 m).
Total equivalent vent distance = 55 feet (16.5 m) + 30 feet (9 m) = 85 feet (25.5 m) total equivalent vent
length. This is below the maximum allowed distance of 100 feet (30 m)
for this model using 3 inch (7.6 cm)
vent.

NOTICE

Do not include the 3 inch (7.6 cm) condensate elbow or vent terminals in
determining maximum vent length
