3.11 TOP OR REAR EXIT VERTICAL TERMINATION

Simple venting configurations.
For vent configurations requiring one or more 90° elbows (top exit) or one or more 90° elbows (rear
exit), the following formulas apply:
Formula 1: H
< V
T
Formula 2: H
+ V
T
Example:
V
= 5 FT

V
= 6 FT

H
= .03 (four 90° elbows - 90°)
