REAR VENT HORIZONTAL TERMINATION

When venting off the rear of the unit and terminating horizontally, a #45 natural gas orifice or a #55 propane orifice must be used.

FIGURE 14a

The maximum allowable length is 20 feet. All 90° and 45° elbows (except the first two when venting horizontally) re- duce the length by 5 feet each, both horizontally and verti- cally). In this illustration, the maximum allowable length after taking the two elbows into account is 10 feet.
