Duct Fittings

Use this form to compute maximum permissible lengths for duct runs to outdoors.

Note: Do not exceed maximum permissible equivalent lengths!

Flexible ducting: If flexible metal ducting is used, all the equivalent feet values in the table should be doubled. The flexible metal duct should be straight and smooth and extended as much as possible.

Note: Any home ventilation system, such as a cooktop with a downdraft exhaust mechanism, may interrupt the proper flow of combustion air and exhaust required by fireplaces, gas furnaces, gas water heaters and other naturally vented systems. To minimize the chance of inter- ruption of such naturally vented systems, follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards such as those published by NFPA and ASHRAE.
