D. Pipe Selection Chart

The chart will help you in determing proper vent- ing size according to the equivalent feet of pipe calcuated above and the altitude above sea level of this installation. See Figure 11.2.

Locate the calculated equivalent feet of pipe on the vertical left side of the chart. Move to the right horizontally on the chart until you reach your altitude above sea level.

If you fall below the diagonal line, 3 or 4 inch (76 to 102mm) pipe may be used. If it is anywhere above the diagonal line, a 4 inch (102mm) diam- eter pipe is required.

The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as restrictive to the flow of exhaust gases under positive pressure as 1 foot of horizontal pipe, and a foot of horizontal pipe is twice as restrictive as a foot of vertical pipe.
