Recommended Vent Length

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. See “Recommended Standard Fittings” section for equivalent lengths.

For best performance, use no more than three 90° elbows.

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent lengths of each vent piece used in the system. See the following examples:

3¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) vent system = 73 ft (22.2 m) total

AB

6 ft (1.8 m)

2ft

(0.6 m)

C

A. One 3¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) 90° elbow = 25 ft (7.6 m) B. 1 wall cap = 40 ft (12.2 m)

C. 2 ft (0.6 m) + 6 ft (1.8 m) straight = 8 ft (2.4 m)

6" (15.2 cm) vent system = 73 ft (22.2 m) total

AB

6 ft (1.8 m)

2ft

(0.6 m)

CD

A. Two 90° elbows = 20 ft (6.1 m)

B. 1 wall cap = 40 ft (12.2 m)

C. 1 rectangular to round transition piece = 5 ft (1.5 m)

D. 2 ft (0.6 m) + 6 ft (1.8 m) straight = 8 ft (2.4 m)

If the existing vent is round, a rectangular to round transition piece must be used. In addition, a rectangular 3" (7.6 cm) extension vent between the damper assembly and rectangular to round transition piece must be installed to keep the damper from sticking.
