The shaded area within the lines represents ac- ceptable values for HT and VT .

For vent confi gurations requiring more than zero 90° elbow (top exit) or one 90° elbow (rear exit), the following formulas apply:

Formula 1: HT < VT

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet

Example 7:

V1

V2

=1 ft

V3

=1.5 ft

VT

= V1 + V2 + V3 = 2 + 1 + 1.5 = 4.5 ft

H1

=6 ft

H2

=2 ft

HR

= H1 + H2 = 6 + 2 = 8 ft

HO

= .03(four 90° elbows - 90°)

 

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

HT

=HR + HO = 8 + 8.1 = 16.1 ft

HT + VT

= 16.1 + 4.5 = 20.6 ft

Formula 1: HT < 3VT

3VT = 3 x 4.5 = 13.5 ft

16.1 > 13.5

Since this formula is not met, this vent configuration is unacceptable.

Formula 2: HT + VT < 40 feet 20.6 < 40

Since only formula 2 is met, this vent confi guration is unacceptable and a new fi replace location or vent confi guration will need to be established to satisfy both formulas.
