Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or
maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer
to the owner’s information manual provided with this appli-
ance. For assistance or additional information consult a
qualifi ed installer, service agency or your dealer.
WARNING
The chart will help you determine proper venting size
according to the equivalent feet of pipe calculated
above and the altitude above sea level of this instal-
lation.
See Figure 16.2.
Locate the calculated equivalent feet of pipe on
the vertical left side of the chart. Move to the right
horizontally on the chart until you reach your altitude
above sea level.
If you fall below the diagonal line, 3 or 4 inch (76 to
102mm) pipe may be used. If it is anywhere above
the diagonal line, a 4 inch (102mm) diameter pipe is
required.
The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as
restrictive to the fl ow of exhaust gases under positive
pressure as 1 foot of horizontal pipe, and a foot of
horizontal pipe is twice as restrictive as a foot of
vertical pipe.
E. Pipe Selection Chart
The table below can help you calculate the equivalent feet of
pipe which is a method used to determine pellet vent size.

intended to represent any specifi c fuel type.
Fire Risk.
Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles between fi restops.
• ALWAYS maintain specifi ed clearances around venting and fi restop systems.
• Install
fi restops as specifi ed.
Failure to keep insulation or other material away from vent pipe may cause fi re.
WARNING
Example 1
: If the equivalent length of pipe is 23 feet (7m)with altitude
of 8,000 feet (2438m) you must use 4 inch (102mm) diameter type “L”
or “PL” vent.
Example 2
: If the equivalent length of pipe is 12 feet (3.7m) with al-
titude of 6,000 feet (1829m) you may use 3 or 4 inch (76 to 102mm)
diameter type “L” or “PL” vent
