See graph to determine the required vertical rise VT for the required horizontal run HT.

H1 90°

REQUIRED VERTICAL RISE IN FEET (VT)

V1

=5 ft

V2

=10 ft

VT

= V1 + V2 = 5 + 10 = 15 ft

H1

=3 ft

H2

=2.5 ft

HR

= H1 + H2 = 3 + 2.5 = 5.5 ft

HO

= .03(one 45º elbow + three 90º elbows - 135º)

 

= .03(45+90+90+90-135)=5.4

HT

= HR + HO = 5.5 + 5.4 = 10.9 ft

HT + VT = 10.9 + 15 = 25.9 ft

Formula 1:

HT < VT

 

 

10.9 < 15

Formula 2:

HT + VT < 40 feet

25.9 < 40

Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is ac- ceptable.

PLUS OFFSETS IN FEET (HT)

The shaded area within the lines represents acceptable values for HT and VT.

For vent configurations requiring more than one 45º and one 90° elbow , the following formulas apply:

Formula 1: HT < VT

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet
