with an 'X'.
If the 'X' falls on or above the top boundary of the shaded area, the installation is
acceptable.
Example A: (Acceptable Installation)
If the vertical dimension from the hearth is 84" and the horizontal run to the wall
flange of the vent termination is 36" then the vent configuration is acceptable.
Example B: (Acceptable Installation)
If the vertical dimension from the hearth is 72" and the horizontal run to the wall
flange of the vent termination is 66" then the vent configuration is acceptable.
Example C: (Unacceptable Installation)
If the vertical dimension from the floor of the fireplace is 74" and the horizontal
run to the wall flange of the vent termination is 108" then the vent configuration
is
NOT acceptable.
