Use the following steps to correctly size vent pipe diameter. Refer to Vent Pipe Size Determination Worksheet on page 53.

1 − Determine the vent termination and its corresponding equivalent feet value according to table 5.

2 − Determine the number of 90° elbows required for both indoor and outdoor (e.g. snow riser) use. Calculate the corresponding equivalent feet of vent pipe.

3 − Determine the number of 45° elbows required for both indoor and outdoor use. Calculate the corresponding equivalent feet of vent pipe.

4 − Determine the length of straight pipe required.

5 − Add the total equivalent feet calculated in steps 1 through 4 and compare that length to the maximum values given in table 6 for the proposed vent pipe di- ameter. If the total equivalent length required exceeds the maximum equivalent length listed in the appropri- ate table, evaluate the next larger size pipe.

***90° elbows used in configuration of G61MP−60D−135 vent, must be lim- ited to 3" sweep elbows.

†On G61MP−071, −091 and −111 units, sweep elbows must be used for all 90° elbows in the venting system when 2", 2−1/2" or 3" vent pipe is used. Sweep elbows are recommended for use in vent systems of other G61MP units.
