CONDITIONS THAT MUST ALWAYS BE MET
• Total vent length, including elbows (see 3.2.3.3), must not exceed 40 ft. H + V
≤
40 ft.
• The first 8 ft. of vent (from the fireplace) must always be covered with the insulating sleeve provided with the
fireplace; no matter the model or configuration type.
• The first 6 in. of vent (from the fireplace) must be vertical.
• The horizontal run, including elbow equivalents (see 3.2.3.3), must not exceed 3 times the vertical rise when it
is greater than or equal to 1.33 ft. (16 in.) and less than or equal to 10 ft.
