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

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

Formula 1: HT < 3VT

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet

Example 4:

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 elbows - 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 confi guration is unacceptable and a new fi replace location or vent confi guration will need to be established to satisfy both formulas.

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

HT

=HR + HO = 12.75 + 6.75 = 19.5 ft

HT + VT = 19.5 + 9.5= 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 acceptable.
