+ H = 60 ft (18.3 m) maximum
H = 25 ft (7.62 m) maximum
Install the U-shaped vent restrictor in any vent run with
more than 6 ft of vertical rise. See Page 21 for more
information.
If 25 ft of (H) horizontal vent run is needed,
then 5 ft (straight section) minimum of (V)
vertical vent will be required.
This table shows a 1 (V) to 5 (H) ratio. For
every 1 ft of (V) vertical, you are allowed 5
ft of (H) horizontal run, up to a maximum
horizontal run of 25 ft.
Minimum 6 ft and maximum of 60 ft of
vertical venting.
H = 8 ft (2.4 m) maximum
H + H1 = 20 ft (6.1 m) maximum
V + V1 + H + H1 = 60 ft (18.3 m) maximum
Install the U-shaped vent restrictor in any vent run with
more than 6 ft of vertical rise. See Page 21 for more
information.
If 20 ft of (H) horizontal vent run is needed,
then 4 ft (straight section) minimum of (V)

NOTE: The vent system may have a maximum
of three (3) 90° elbows.
Minimum 6 ft of vertical venting.
