The shaded area within the lines represents acceptable values for HT and VT.

For vent configurations requiring more than one 45º and one 90° elbow , the following formulas apply:

V1

=1 ft

V2

=1.5 ft

VT

= V1 + V2 = 1 + 1.5 = 2.5 ft

H1

=6 ft

H2

=2 ft

HR

= H1 + H2 = 6 + 2 = 8 ft

HO

= .03(one 45º elbow + three 90º elbow - 135º)

 

= .03(45 + 90 + 90 + 90 - 135) = 5.4 ft

HT

=HR + HO = 8 + 5.4 = 13.4 ft

HT + VT = 13.4 + 2.5 = 15.9 ft

Formula 1: HT < 3VT

3VT = 3 x 2.5 = 7.5 ft

13.4 > 7.5

Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is unacceptable.

Formula 2: HT + VT

< 40 feet

 

15.9 < 40

 

 

Since only formula 2 is met, this vent configuration is unac-

 

ceptable and a new fireplace location or vent configuration

 

will need to be established to satisfy both formulas.

VT

H1

H2

H3

=10.75 ft

HR

= H1 + H2 + H3 = 1 + 1 + 10.75 = 12.75 ft

HO

= .03(three 90° elbows + two 45° elbow - 135°)

 

= .03(90 + 90 + 90 + 45 + 45 - 135) = 6.75 ft

HT

=HR + HO = 12.75 + 6.75 = 19.5 ft

HT + VT = 19.5 + 4.5= 29 ft

Formula 1: HT < 3VT

3VT = 3 x 9.5 = 28.5 ft

19.5 < 28.5

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet 29 < 40

Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is ac- ceptable.
