Example: If 20 feet of (H) horizontal vent run is needed, then 4 feet minimum of (V) vertical vent will be required.
This table shows a 1 (V) to 5 (H) ratio. For every 1 foot of (V)
vertical, you are allowed 5 feet of (H) horizontal run, up to aV maximum horizontal run of 20 feet.

H + H1 = 20 feet (6.096 m) Max.
V + V1 + H + H1 = 40 ft. (12.192 m) Max.
Example: If 20 feet of (H) horizontal vent run is needed, then 4 feet minimum of (V) vertical vent will be required.
This table shows a 1 (V) to 5 (H) ratio. For every 1 foot of (V) vertical, you are allowed 5 feet of (H) horizontal run, up to a maximum horizontal run of 20 feet.
An elbow is acceptable as 1 foot of vertical rise except where an elbow is the only vertical component in the system. See Figure 35.
