Figure 28 and 29 shows the range of possible vent configurations if the unit is top vented, for vertical 

and horizontal terminations, any layout that remains within the grid areas is acceptable. They also show 

the vent restrictor required, relative to the length of vent pipe. Longer vertical vent lengths necessitate 

greater restriction.
Having the fewest number of elbows is ideal, as they tend to disrupt air movement. Using 45˚ elbows is 

preferable to using 90˚ elbows. Also, a shorter vent system will perform better than a longer one.
If the unit is rear vented it may have a maximum horizontal run of 36” (91.4 cm) and must be used with 

a 36” (91.4 cm) snorkel termination.
