(Continued)

   If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run (level height 

maintained) the horizontal vent length is reduced by 36". 

Figures 

21 and 22.

 This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to 

increase or redirect a vertical rise. 

Figure 24

Example: According  to  the  vent  graph  (Page  20)  the  maximum 
horizontal vent length in a system with a 7.5' vertical rise is 20’ (6 
m) and if a 90° elbow is required in the horizontal vent it must be 
reduced to 17' (5.2 m). 
In  Figures  23  and  24,

  Dimension A  plus  B  must  not  be  greater 

than 17' (5.2 m).

   The maximum number of 45° elbows permitted per side wall 

installation is two (2). These elbows can be installed in either 
the vertical or horizontal run. 

   For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run, the length of 

the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18" (45 cm). This does 
not apply if the 45° elbows are installed on the vertical part of 
the vent system.

   The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system is 270°.
