Simple venting confi guration (only one 45° and 90°
elbow)

For vent confi gurations requiring more than one 45° elbow and 90° elbow, the following formulas
apply:
Formula 1: H
T
< V
T
Formula 2: H
T
+ V
T
< 40 feet (12.2m)
Example:
V
1
= 8 FT (2.4m)
V
T
= V
1
= 8 FT (2.4m)
H
1
= 2.5 FT (0.8m)
H
2
= 2 FT (0.6m)
H
R
= H
1
+ H
2
= 2.5 FT (0.8m) + 2 FT (0.6m) = 4.5 FT (1.4m)
H
O
= .03 (one 45° elbow + two 90° elbows - 135°) = .03 (225 - 135°) = 2.7 FT (0.8m)
H
T
= H
R
+ H
O
= 4.5 FT (1.4m) + 2.7 FT (0.8m) = 7.2 FT (2.2m)
H
T
+ V
T
= 7.2 FT (2.2m) + 8 FT (2.4m) = 15.2 FT (4.6m)
Formula 1: H
T
< V
T
7.2 FT (2.2m) < 8 FT (2.4m)
Formula 2: H
T
+ V
T
< 40 FT (12.2m)
15.2 FT (4.6m) < 40 FT (12.2m)
Since both formulas are met, this vent confi guration is acceptable.
