3.8. FLUE VENT PRESSURE DROP TABLES
The tables below list the pressure drop in flue vents in equivalent feet (eq. ft.) or equivalent meters
(eq. m) for single Innovation and ReCon water heaters at various duct diameters. All values are based
on the assumption of 140°F (60°C) Water Temperature and 70°F (21°C) Rise at Sea Level.
