1.6.1. Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)

The longer the run of pipe in your installation, the
greater the restriction in your system.

Always use 4” pipe

Horizontal runs shall not exceed 9 feet.

Never exceed 30 feet of EVL.


To calculate EVL, use the following conversions table:

Qty

Type of pipe

EVL equivalent(ft)

1

90°

elbow or “T”

5

1

45° elbow

3

1 ft

Horizontal pipe run

1

1 ft

Vertical pipe run

0.5


Here is an example on how to calculate the EVL of
your installation. (See Figure 9):

(3 x 4‟ of vertical length = 12‟ x 0.5 = 6 EVL) +

(1 x elbow or "T" = 5 EVL) +

(2 x 1‟ of horizontal length = 2 EVL)

Total EVL = (6 + 5 +2) = 13.



1.6.2. Installation Configurations
