A 3¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 6" (15.2 cm) round vent should be used.
The total length of the vent system including straight vent, elbow(s), transitions and wall or roof caps must not exceed the equivalent of 140 ft (42.7 m) for either type of vent.
For best performance, use no more than three 90° elbows.

D E F G
A. Rectangular to round transition piece: 3¹⁄₄" x 10" to 6" = 5 ft (8.3 x 25.4 cm to 15.2 cm = 1.5 m)
B. Roof cap: 3¹⁄₄" x 10" = 24 ft (8.3 x 25.4 cm = 7.3 m)
C. 90° elbow: 3
" x 10" = 25 ft (8.3 x 25.4 cm = 7.6 m)
D. 90° elbow: 6" = 10 ft (15.2 cm = 3 m)
E. Wall cap: 3¹⁄₄" x 10" = 40 ft (8.3 x 25.4 cm = 12.2 m)
F. 45° elbow: 6" = 5 ft (15.2 cm = 1.5 m)
G. 90° flat elbow: 3¹⁄₄" x 10" = 10 ft (8.3 x 25.4 cm = 3 m)
