See graph to determine the required verti-
cal rise VT for the required horizontal run
HT.
V1 = VT = 6 ft
H1 = 3 ft
H2 = 5 ft
HR = H1 + H2 = 3 + 5 = 8 ft
HO = .03 (two 90° elbows - 90°) = .03(180° - 90°) = 2.7
ft
HT = HR + HO = 8 + 2.7 = 10.7 ft
HT + VT
=
10.7 + 6 =16.7

Formula 1: H

T < 4.2 VT
4.2 VT = 4.2 x 6 = 25.2 ft

10.7 < 25.2

Formula 2: H

T + VT < 24.75 feet

16.7 < 24.75

Since both formulas are met, this vent confi guration is ac-
For vent confi gurations requiring more than one 90�� elbow the
following formulas apply:

Formula 1: HT < 4.2 VT

Formula 2: HT + VT < 24.75 feet

Example 2:

ceptable.

Example 3:

V1 = 4 ft
V2 = 1.5 ft
VT = V1 + V2 = 4 + 1.5 = 5.5 ft
H1 = 2 ft
H2 = 1 ft
H3 = 1 ft
H4 = 1.5 ft
HR = H1 + H2 + H3 + H4 = 2 + 1 + 1 + 1. 5 = 5.5 ft
HO = .03 (four 90° elbows - 90°) = .03(360° - 90°) = 8.1
ft
HT = HR + HO = 5.5 + 8.1 = 13.6 ft
HT + VT = 13.6 + 5.5 = 19.1 ft

Formula 1: H

T < 4.2 VT
4.2 VT = 4.2 x 5.5 = 23.1 ft
13.6 < 23.1

Formula 2: H

T + VT < 24.75 feet
19.1 < 24.75
