For best performance, use no more than three 90° elbows. If more than one elbow is used, make sure that there is a minimum of 24 inches
(61 cm) of straight vent between any two elbows. Do Not install two elbows together.
It is recommended that you use round vent instead of rectangular vent, especially if elbows are required. If rectangular vent is required, it should be transitioned to 9" (22.9 cm) round vent as soon as possible.
Determining the length of system you need:
To calculate the length of system you need, add the equivalent feet for each duct piece that will be needed. See example for 9"
(22.9 cm) round vent system.

Maximum length = 55 ft. (16.8 m)
2 - 90 elbows | = 10 | ft. | (3 m) |
