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

For vent configurations requiring more than two 90° el- bows the following formulas apply:

Formula 1: HT < VT

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet

V1

=9 ft

V2

=6 ft

VT

= V1 + V2 = 9 + 6 = 15 ft

H1

=3 ft

H2

=2 ft

H3

=1.5 ft

HR

= H1 + H2 + H3 = 3 + 2 + 1.5 = 6.5 ft

HO

= .03(four 90° elbows - 90°)

 

= .03(90 + 90 + 90 + 90 - 90) = 8.1 ft

HT

= HR + HO = 6.5 + 8.1 = 14.6 ft

HT + VT =14.6 + 15 = 29.6 ft

Formula 1: HT < VT 14.6 < 15

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet 29.6 < 40

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